Hey, I need help.

I need a thesis statement for a paper that's due a long way in the future. The thesis statement is due today, though, and I still haven't gotten anything. It needs to be on either language and gender (ick) or language: standard and dialect.

Language, standard and dialect: An analysis of standard written language compared and contrasted to actual written language as seen on the internet (bulletin boards, on-line journals and e-mail).

Or pick one of the three; I tend to write the way I talk, which ain't exactly "standard" - maybe track deviations from standard by age, or x years with computers, or availability of text-messaging... I dunno. What was the question again?

Maybe. That's how I wrote my midterm.
