Sure. I could say Guido Guido Guido. Instead, I use the subject PRONOUN "I." I could say "I give the bike to Mary." Likewise, I could reduce it to "I give it to her." It being the direct object pronoun, her being the indirect object PRONOUN. Pronouns take the place of nouns. Usually to avoid unnecessary repetition of nouns. Simple as that...
"BOARD" is a noun. If you reduced it to a pronoun it would, most likely, be it (depends on usage in the sentence). Proper nouns are distinguished from COMMON nouns in that they name something specific and, duh, begin with a capital letter.
Common noun: "The dog is cute." Proper noun: "Snoopy is cute."
Common noun: "Someone hit me with a board the other day." Proper noun: "I like to write on the JP.com Board!"
"Board," by any stretch of the imagination isn't a pronoun. If you can get a definite article "the" in front, you have a NOUN! The board. [Show/Hide Quoted Message] (Quoting Message by ronhartsell from Sunday, October 26, 2008 11:10:26 AM)

I always wondered if the 'b' in board should be capitalized or not. My thinking was if I used the word by itself, it shouldn't be. But if using it in reference to a specific place (ie Priest Board or welcome to the Board) it should be capitalized.
I've done both, so I figure I'm batting .500 What is the rule for this? [Show/Hide Quoted Message] (Quoting Message by Deep Freeze from Sunday, October 26, 2008 10:15:50 AM)

Actually Ron, the cockles of my heart is an old expression that you may remember. I believe it is derived from the latin for one's heart chambers which , I believe, resemble the shellfish Necro mentioned.

Funny you should metion that. Last Thursday, the Princess insisted on cooking dinner. She made beef stroganoff. It was very good! I guess we do need to let them have their way occassionally! It sure is interesting how you and I are so similar in this area. We both do the cooking! The wives stay out of the kitchen. HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
