Valium just made his 100th post!
Actually I think that (although you probably won't hear anyone call it this) is a Future Perfect Future Passive Progressive. Which can also be said like: I will be going to be being run.

Valium didn't get what I said!
A Future Perfect Future Passive Progressive means it happens in a time future of the future time you're talking about and it is an ongoing action being done to the subject. Hope that helps.

Valium still doesn't get it!
I'm sorry, but I don't think I can really explain it any better here.

Ah, so there's an equivalent! So what? :wink:
Actually, there isn't. "I will have been running" isn't the same as "I will run", as it speaks of another time. If you're going to run tomorrow, you "will run" tomorrow, but you "will have been running" the day after tomorrow, see? Now let's see, as I haven't quite looked at the rest of the sentence yet... Future Perfect Future Passive Progressive. "I will have been going to be being run" I willl, future, have been, perfect, going to, future, being, passive, run, progressive. I think. I'm not sure about the last two cases, as I can never remember them. The rest looks okay though. Xeroc and I are having a discussion about verbs.

Katy has not said that I am not allowed to reply by remarking on the fact that she does *not* have a brand new sig.

KJ still has my quote in her sig.
Not only that, but my mother mentioned your SN and didn't even know it. XD We were talking about my friend Katie (she's probably even more of a Janewayite than I am) and how one of my friends said we should all call her Jane; she should like that, and my mom said, "Heehee, we'll call her Katie Jane!" XD

Information provideage: *smashes the TV...* The Emmys were absolute crap. They should've just called it the "We <3 HBO Awards". I don't even get HBO. They won 18 frickin' Emmys. I shall now do my best Cat impression. :roll: And The Sopranos beat CSI for best drama. Oh, you can imagine the anger floating around the house.
