The picture you see above is of an essay header I received today.
There are several issues I have with this header. First of all, why isn't my name capitalized? Second of all, the header is not in MLA format. Third of all,I don't actually teach a class called English combustion; I teach English Composition.
But, most important, now I totally want to teach a class called English Combustion!
What do you think the class entails?

I really want to take part in an English Combustion class. I'm not entirely sure what would happen though.
Oh, man! English Combustion sounds AWESOME! Now I have to figure out what goes into a course like that!
>runs away to figure<
I think you're on to something here.
Easy, this is what happens when someone reads my work before my editor gets it!
You could teach a class using my errors as examples, but beware spontaneous grammar combustion is possible!
I wrote my Kings of Leon post a long time ago about how jealous I was of them. once was enough, I don't want to think about them anymore...and yet that post is one of the most-read at my blog, I can't win.
yes! jenny, you've come over to the dark side with me and ee, the side of the stylistic lowercase...
I would definitely take a class on English Combustion! :)
English Combustion. Yeah, I want to know what that is, too.

Oops! Before you break out that red pen....
"stumbled ONTO the title for book number two" is what I meant to type....
Had you stumbled ON the title, I would have offered to help you up.

"English Combustion" sounds interesting. :P
I don't know but it'd be worth sitting in on!
Sounds hot. You're the one who keeps saying grammar is sexy...
Ha! I want to take that class.
English Combustion sounds like a class on writing explosive descriptions, comic-book-style: Pow! Bam! Pop! Bang! I believe the scriptwriters of the Batman TV show may have taken that class.
