Well, it's less that you don't need it as that in French, it's incorrect unless your name is "Brad's." Since "chez" is a word that can be found in English dictionaries now, though, and in those definitions, the possessive is probably OK, if we don't take the thread title as bilingual, we can probably leave Brad alone over this nit.

Partial silence.
Total suffering, but partial silence.
That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

Please not to mention that name, even if he is vacationing in the South of France.

No, really. It's just that donkey piss in a Burgundy bottle is what's usually brought to dinner.
When someone brings a good bottle, I usually like it.

Now that the pedants are at attention, let me say that I have fallen in love with this blog.

Not all of us can read Hebrew, Brad.

That should be "thou wilt." I don't know what "upon October's cometh" means. Why are you addressing someone you disdain in the second person singular?
