    Something has happened now that I’m older and I can’t write a sentence that is fewer than 72 words long with at least 6 commas, an em dash and perhaps a semi-colon. Help.

        “Here is a lesson in creative writing. First rule: Do not use semicolons. They are transvestite hermaphrodites representing absolutely nothing. All they do is show you've been to college.” -Kurt Vonnegut

        Semicolons are medicine to our current malady. Consider them temporary medicinal management of our condition.
