Right.  And by the way, it's "grammar", not "grammer".

 

I think it was Dijkstra who said "If you make it possible for
programmers to write their programs in English, you will find
programmers cannot write English".

"Me" is correct. "Myself" is not.

It actually should be,

 

"grab Andy or myself".

 

Damn, that sounds to GAY to repeat.

I was always taught your reference to yourself should be last. A better
sounding response would have been Andy or myself but that doesn't follow
some peoples qualifier of leaving the other person out.

In an argument with my boss on a totally nonproductive point.  My boss
mailed out this sentence:

 

When someone is out, please grab me or Andy and...

 

My point was it should be "Andy or I" in this particular use.  Who's
right, as he just called me Gomer (he's from Ohio and my neck is very
red)...

 

Thanks,
