I spent the afternoon calmly reviewing my outline plans for my upcoming trip when I realised I’d made a horrifying mistake. (Obviously I didn’t make any changes as I’m not allowed to make any more until 1st May.)
I had colour-coded the plans by event, e.g. ADRs and FPPs were in red, park time in grey, and so on.
I realised that I should have colour-coded them by park. Imagine what a disastrous trip I would have had if I hadn’t realised!
But here’s my question to you: what colour would you allocate to each park. There is — of course — a correct answer. Clue: start with AK — that’s an obvious one.
heh… AK yellow/orange for the sun on the Savannah - the dried out parts.
Epcot is green because there’s so much greenery, like the flower and garden show
I forget why I picked purple for HS, but maybe because it was close to that Mickey-hat blue
I did blue for MK, which should have been red because I use it for a background highlight, not for the font and the red turns pink if you lighten the colour.
Well, I was commenting more so on the use of an em dash instead of a hyphen. Actually, I was taught no spaces when em dashes are used in place of commas. At least according to the Texas Manual of Usage and Style.
(and, here we are discussing punctuation, yet again…)
There are two things which should be made criminal offences. First, the use of hyphens where an en or em dash is appropriate. Second, the use of inch marks where apostrophes are appropriate.
