Death of the adverb

Marquez (dead now, long live Marquez) never used the Spanish equivalent of an adverb ending in -ly, and asked his translators not to do so either. That's a great act coming from a great man. I should do that with great gutso myself.

Also decided to avoid using the word 'troll' and instead go with 'to provoke' or 'provocateur'. Reading Adrian Mole series -- the last time I read a book from the series was in the seventh grade. The ease time flies with -- sigh.
