Typing in lower case can cause problems

Webbers I feel I must point out that typing everything in lower case can lead to confusion by changing the context of a message. Case in point its the difference between helping your Uncle Jack off a horse or helping your uncle jack off a horse. Think about that!!!

Ooer, yes. It is like not putting punctuation in...that changes the context too.
I will try to do better in future BJ.

It’s not just capitals and punctuation that can make sentences have a double meaning

I'm fortunate, I don't have an Uncle Jack anymore nor do I any longer keep a horse, mainly because Uncle Jack died in confusing circumstances where he paid rather unatural attention to the horse, the horse tried to reciprocate his attentions by going down on him, this resulted in his (Uncle Jacks) spine being broken by the horses weight and the horse having to be put down because of its unsatisfied lust for Uncle Jack.
