I know that this thread will be closed really soon, but I would love if I could get some answers first. I have my own website (one of those dinky little do it yourself things), but I would be more than willing to set up a board on it (it already has an unused chat room if anyone is interested tell me). Problem is I don't know how, does anyone know a place where I can find out how or would be willing to take the time to shoot me an e-mail or PM telling me. Thanks a bundle!

So the fact that there is an "exception" for when apostrophes are used to indicate possession in the case of pronouns shows a "kind of" inconsistency in the sense that there is no "general" rule for apostrophes and possession.....like when using apostrophes for contractions...which you indicated is a "general rule"......Other examples are like the "i" before "e" "except" after "c" rule......and even that exception rule has exceptions to it...etc...etc.........bottom line is that I don't care!.....I am sorry though if my writing style, spelling errors, punctuation errors, and/or grammar errors cause you any discomfort.
