I don't see the puzzle here... It adds up fine for me, you just add an unnessecary statement on the end. The fact that the bellboy takes $2 is part of the chrage, so it's $27 + $3 returned rather than $27 + $2 that was payed to the bell boy, that $2 isn't left over.
Last time I checked 27 + 3 = 30.....

Because I'm human and I made a mistake!! Ok?
And please don't belabor the point any further by quoting the "apostrophe rules" to me. I know how to use them; I simply made an honest mistake.
At least I can admit mine.
English is such a useless major.

Originally posted by AThousandYoungActually, Yoda's method of speech is a perfectly legitimate grammar form, but is strange because it is seldom used (known as OVS and normal speech is SVO). So this means Bowmann isn't even good at correcting people, so what does that leave???

Originally posted by SuzianneIt hurts me, but I'm going to have to side with Bowmann here. He made no mistake to admit. And you've yet to admit you didn't realize he was just kiding, which was quite obvious to me. You seem to have a tendency to attack those who cause you to miss something rather than admit you missed it.
