Yup, a smart little boy knew that....
The only reasonable argument for owning a gun is to protect yourself from the police.

Thanks Powertothepeople for your insightful input on those two words. I woke up this morning nearly panic stricken thinking about the extent of how these two words,(Lay/Lie) should be used correctly. Now I know, I won't lose any sleep tonight, thinking about it further.
With out Jesus Christ there can be no Redemption or Salvation.

You could make that 3 words, two, to and too, as I have seen two used too many times in place of to; I blame texting on this. If you add two to two, you get four. If you add one to three, you get four, too.

While we're talking grammar, let's address the most common error I see on the board: your vs. you're.
You're is a contraction of 'you' and 'are'.
"You are cool" is the same as "You're cool."
Your is an adjective describing a possession.
"Your new speakers are amazing." "I think your opinion is awful."
Please, please, please -- and I'm looking sternly at SirQuack when I say this -- never say "Your right" when you want to say you agree with someone. "You're right" is correct.
This is super simple. One is a contraction, the other is not.

It's finally here, the zombie apocalypse. Only Charles will survive as he can wear his Medusa hand bag over his head and blend in.
