Now available at governmentattic.org: advice columns on grammar and usage from the National Security Agency’s Grammar Geek(s). “Gabby” took over as the Geek after “Gigi” retired. Both names are pseudonyms.
A choice bit from Gigi:

If I had a dollar for every time I have heard a news anchor solemnly state that such and such “went down” today, I would have enough money for several new grammar books — all of which I would throw at the TV.How marvelous that the NSA can spy on millions of Americans and still keep its sense of humor.

They have a good sense of humor, but you might have to grit your teeth.
And use a secure line. :)
