Editors Notes: Why, placing punctuation matters so much to meaning, metre, and such

Editors Notes: Why, placing punctuation matters so much to meaning, metre, and such

It’s time for holiday cheer and Yvonne came across this hilarious oldie-but-goodie video about the importance of commas. A serious topic for us, of course, but this caroling analysis of the comma placement in God, Rest, Ye, Merry, Gentlemen (can you have too many?) is so much fun!

We have so MUCH to celebrate this season, as Yvonne completed her chemotherapy treatments this week. There will be a recovery from the treatment itself. But the doctors say she should be safe to attend our family gatherings by the time those big ones come around in a couple of weeks.

We hope your holiday season is filled with joy, that you end 2025 with a flurry of productivity and success, and that your New Year comes in brighter and better than ever.
