I stumbled across this fun bit about the semi-colon in the New York Times today, including: "One of the school system’s most notorious graduates, David Berkowitz, the Son of Sam serial killer who taunted police and the press with rambling handwritten notes, was, as the columnist Jimmy Breslin wrote, the only murderer he ever encountered who could wield a semicolon just as well as a revolver. (Mr. Berkowitz, by the way, is now serving an even longer sentence.)"/Erin Daniels, Vox Box.

Question: Can you properly use a semi-colon? (Originally posted at Vox Box)
