In the following paragraph there is a secret message. Once you have found it, the rest of it all makes sense.

Welcome to flooble, Sandi. There's no shame in being confused. I am often confused for Brad Pitt. As for your question, "Take the money to the swinging bridge the other side of town" is an elliptical sentence. (An ellipsis is the omission of one or more words that are obviously understood but that must be supplied to make a construction grammatically complete). For instance, when someone says "Coming !!" they really mean "I am coming !!". In ""Take the money to the swinging bridge the other side of town", the word "on" is missing but is understood, as in "Take the money to the swinging bridge on the other side of town".
