“the” is in my business name, capitalize it or not? I think it can be whatever you like, but you have to be consistent. That online classifieds site is "craigslist, Inc." and Yahoo! has an exclamation point for goodness sake. |

What is the origin and scope of usage of the phrase “So long…” used to bid goodbye? @MattЭллен, and thanks for all the fish. |

“There lie targets” vs. “there lies targets” It's correct, it's just a bit clunky. For instance, you don't say where they are lying. It might help to clean up the sentence if you specify that. Like, some intermediate targets lie between you and your goal or in your path, lie intermediate targets. Without more context, it's hard to know. |

“the” is in my business name, capitalize it or not? That being said, how one would choose to stylize their company name in a logo, for instance, wouldn't have to follow this guideline. |

“There lie targets” vs. “there lies targets” Do you need to use lie? Can't you just say there are intermediate targets? |

Is there a term for the other 2 months in a quarter? Even if there was such a word, I doubt it would be meaningful for any potential volunteers. Better just to specify the dates. I wouldn't bend over backwards, linguistically or otherwise, for someone who's only volunteering 4 days a year. |

Is “since so long” correct? whether 1-2 months constitutes a long time is completely subjective. 1-2 months is long time to go without food. |

Does 'turn off (a person)' always have a sexual connotation? Alternatively, someone could "turn me on" to Thai food. That would, god I hope, not be a sexual use of that expression. |

A short term for something like “satisfaction + frustration” Hold on, I've got a cookie around here somewhere. |

Origin of “More X than you can shake a stick at” Let me see what I can find. I'll be back it two shakes of a lamb's tail. |
