Comment on Re: Did You Hear We Got Osama?

I liked this post. If you are the author you have a few grammatical errors:

because I hanged with a guy / because I hung out with a guy

I tell them you need to relax; get your head out of the book. / I tell them they need to relax; get their head out of the book.

over the long hall it works out./ over the long haul it works out.

I'm not trying to be a downer, just offering some HN feedback. :)

Keep on rocking. With a little refinement I think this post would make a good counter to "Did you hear we got Osama" but as it stands it's not as clear cut. I ass/u/me you are not a native english speaker but nonetheless I got your gist.

Just playing devils advocate: You suggest to your friend "Get your head out of the book" but is not HN/etc the "proverbial" book?

Thanks, a combination of lack sleep and food the last couple days. See the last line, I knew there were tons of mistakes but up in the sky so hard to see them.

It means attack the problem from a point of interest. Ergo, can mean reading that same book ;), back to front maybe :D
