My first Rolex was the 36 gold day date. Still love it but hardly ever wear it. If I do only under a shirt. Nearly got me in trouble a couple of times. It's getting harder and harder to enjoy our watches and cars. As the song goes it's a mad world.

For example: if I were to write, “George B, is it right to separate a name with a comma in a sentence?” Or: “George B is it right to separate a name, etc... “... the former scans better and the latter runs off and as a result, “is” runs the risk of being interpreted as a doing verb rather than the onset of a question.
