My blog gets plugged in a thread rife with Smurf innuendo. I'm pretty sure this is a sign for me to update more often.

I am still confused (Dan's makes sense but it's not the same as the one above)

"That that is not the that that that that refers to" would make sense too.

I am maybe just being picky..

"I think that that that that that cabdriver used was incorrect."

"If it weren't that that that that that cabdriver used was correct then I think that that that that that that refers to would have sufficed.

That "that" is not that "that" that "that 'that'" refers to.
