In progress, with one to go... but my last two competitive articles are ranked 12 of 12 and 5 of 5, begging the question: WTF? And I was just wondering why I was even bothering with Helium anymore.

Before any of you hardcore linguists pounce me, I am already aware of my "incorrect" usage of the phrase, "begging the question." The English language is evolving, people: You can run, but you can't hide. Sad to say that even the most anal among us must ride the tide. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. I'll eat my shorts if my usage doesn't become part of the vernacular. That's just my two cents. If I'm falling prey to phrase misuse, at least I'm still avoiding cliches in my writing.
