I don't consider myself a smart guy.  I am not over educated.  I am far from a grammar guru.

BUT, I thought I would clarify the 2's:

TOO - As in TOO MUCH,  There are TOO many fish in the pond

TWO - TWO people walked into the restaurant.  There are TWO fish in the pond.

TO - I am going TO walk TO the pond TO see the fish

Summary:

TO get into the park, you need TWO fish in your pocket.  Three fish is one TOO many.

Well I just got a new boat today and I will be going to that pond on Saturday to take care of that fish problem. I have too seats and the to of us can fish until we get two tired to cast anymore if you wanna ride with me. Just 16 more hours until it is bass time baby.

I`ve been on this site two times and know that there are to many comedians here too.

You mean "TOO MANY"

Anyways,

Thanks for the kudos, the two of you are too kind to describe.

TOO also includes ALSO.  Example: I want to go to the pond TOO.

There - I want to go there with him.

They're - used in place where 'they are' also works.  They're nice boys.

Their - someones possession.  I like their house.

Your - How are your children?

You're is used when 'you are' also fits.  You're a nice boy.

I love this thread. However, I have come to realize in my old age that grammar is simply changing. Things like text messages and IMs are changing the landscape.

The English language evolves and this is just another change.

Words like irregardless are now in the dictionary and in common use.

Don't get me wrong, I'm on your side Blue. But being there makes me feel like the old guy at the party yelling at the kids to turn their music down.

That being said...

Its - Possessive - no apostrophe. I read its contents.

It's - Contraction for It is. It's going to be a hot day.

I've noticed troubles with this one:  LOSE and LOOSE.

Lose:  Win or LOSE.  LOSE money or make money.

Loose:  Tight or LOOSE. 

Mrs Caserri would applaud that! It's the error she notices, and points out the most.
