Since almost everything else has been covered, I'l bring up the punctuation-quote controversy. I'm on the British with this one. I mean, which makes more sense to you?
So John said "My pants?" (American standard)
So John said "My pants"? (British standard)
John was not asking a question as far as we know. To put the question mark inside of the quotes is essentially misquoting him. If it's not part of what you're quoting, leave it outside of the quotes.
I'll just mention loose vs. lose, "try and do it" instead of "try to do it" and "should of" instead of "should have".
