No... I meant what I typed..."OedipusES"...as in "more than one Oedipus"...Oedipus plural....
"Oedipus's" would be Oedipus possessive...as in "pertaining to something that belongs to" Oedipus...lol...Don't try to school me, Sweetie...I'm a teacher;) :p :)

Actualy, I believe you made a small and yet common mistake, of corse I may be wrong: The word "Oedipus's" is possessive. If a word, or name end with the letter "s" you simply put a " ' " at the end, like so: Oedipus'.

Actually...You add the apostrophe at the END of a word to show possession IF the word is ALSO plural, and as most plural words DO tend to end with the letter "s"...It does look that way....

ie:.....bear's.....possessive...belonging to a bear
.........bears......plural...more than one bear
.........bears'.....plural AND possessive...belonging to more than one bear:)

You'll NEVER get me on Grammer:)

It seems that I won't. I must congratulate you on your knowledge of that. I'm not bad at Grammer, I mind you, but I'm not great at it, either. It is obvious that you are quite better then me at Grammer.

Aw, I'm touched. No need for love. I don't really believe in love. I'm one of those kinda people who don't care for anyone. But it's still nice of you. Wait, did I just say "nice" and "you" in the same sentence?:eek: I hope I don't ever doing something to get someone one to say that to me. It would destroy my reputation.
