I'm assuming that most of it is.

The media are still very much at fault for giving him billions of dollars worth of free publicity.

Well, now, I don't think it goes back quite as far as the George Washington administration.

I very much like their use of the diaeresis. But then, I'm someone who uses an apostrophe in 'blog, 'phone, and 'cello whenever I can get away with it.

*Adjusts glasses* Actually, "exeunt" is plural.

My dinner last night was several pieces of Swiss cheese and a bowl of frozen peas. And I mean frozen.
