What the hell is a Grammar Anarchist?
You can be one! Since we don’t have a U.S. language, feel FREE to set your own rules -- interpret grammar YOUR WAY. You’re not in England anymore. Join the anarchy of U.S. grammar! Make your choices and preserve them in YOUR STYLE MANUAL. —The Grammar Anarchist

Speaking of Numbers
Writing dates can be tricky. My choices:
No comma when using month and year: July 2011
No ordinals (st, nd, rd, th) when using day, month, and year: She turned 20 on July 18, 2011.
Use ordinals when using only the day: “My birthday is on the 24th.”
