grammar is always pertinent, right?

So, we are 24 days away from my hitchin'. That's what you call it when you're 50% hillbilly. And then you get a moonshine jug and some spoons and somebody fetches a fiddle! Yeehaw!

The invitation lady told theMonica that a response card line should read, "Number of vegetarian meal requested." I call balderdash. I think it should be "Number of vegetarian mealS requested" (except no capital "s" emphasizing the difference between meal and mealS). I am too lazy to actually look this up. And even if technically "meal" is correct I contend that it's one of those usage(s) which is so archaic so as to be rendered meaningless. The language has moved on. The correct usage is meals. As you can see, I've neatly set-up the problem so that I can not be wrong. That's how you debate!
