    I don't normally comment, but I had to add that my elementary students called an apostrophe a "comma to the top."

    I was JUST about to say this! 

    Someone once said that to me and I almost peed on myself laughing.  Now, I say "comma to the top" in normal conversation.  I have to watch myself so I don't come off uneducated to those that don't know me!

    That's not where it came from.  I heard "comma to the top" long before Cajun OnStar guy became a star.
