You Is

I have relied on Microsoft Word's grammar suggestions several times to help me with the small mistakes I make.

This however, was not one of those times.

I have no idea what my computer may have been thinking when it told me that you is was a replacement for you're. There is not a place in the English language where that is ever acceptable.

I think my copy of Word is going all urban on me. Is it going to start telling me I should end my sentences with prepositions and suggest that some character went and seen a movie and boughten some popcorn?

What the hell, Microsoft?

In other news, St. George is exhibiting some not-so St. George-y weather. It is overcast and quite pleasant. This is not the dry, painfully hot weather I have come to know and love in a strange, masochistic way.
