Oh, dear. Joe, I have alot to learn, don't I? I see what you mean about that song. I can hear it in my head with all those accents on the words that correspond with the 1 and 4's. Ya'll keep the lessons going. I'm learning, believe it or not.

"Grits is one of those country-boy words that is both singular and plural-like deer, elk and sheep. I think the singular is appropriate when there's a modifier that makes it clear one is talking about something specific. Like, 'Grits are good for you, but these here grits is tasty.'"~~Joe Wrabek
