Sure, he's just a little punctuation-challenged.

Better?

How the hell did you figure that out?

This is what I read:

"I'm an idiot, please put me out of my misery. Ban me, rape me, do whatever it takes, just be rid of me. Anyway, I hope everyone has a great day!"

Yup, better.... I was thinking what's a pontoon boat doing on the road?

I had a great weekend Hound, regardless of my bike still being in the shop.

Sorry, I have a massive hatred to the complete disregard of spelling and punctuation use. I've only recently been able to stand the disuse of capitilization (only with the fact that it's much better than ALLCAPS). I mean, seriously, how long does it take you to hit the backspace and fix an error? You can't wear out the backspace key any faster than the others, if that's what you're worried about.

Also, you can lose something and you can loose a wild pack of dogs on someone, but you can't loose your keys (unless you mean into somebody's face).

They're here, not their or there here.
Their motorcycle is cool, not they're or there.
I'd like to go there, not they're or their.

The worst problem is the misuse of they're, if you have a question, break it up! "They're coming by to pick up the motorcycle." Hmm, doesn't sound right, let's break it up: "They are coming by the pick up the motorcycle." Yes, that's correct.
"They're helmet is over on the washstand." Doesn't sound right, let's break it up! "They are helmet is over on the washstand." No, that's not right. "Their helmet is over on the washstand." That's much better!

If you are still confused remember there refers to a place while their is a possesive.
