:eddie: buys cheap liquor.

You understood (subject - personal pronoun) buy(s):"to buy" verb-present tense, liquor (object - noun ) cheap: adjective modifying 'liquor"

How did I do? I haven't done that since 5th grade.

Oh, it's on lady.

But I gotta head out here in a minute.

Can we postpone until I can get back on. With beer?

:D

I already have a headache. It may be an early night for me, but we can definitely diagram later.

Nope, pretty sure it hasn't
