Re: Grammar question.

Quote:
Johnny's going to the bathroom.
Johnny is going to the bathroom.
Either one is correct because they are both the same.

Here are some more examples:
Quote:
I'm...
You're...
He's...
She's...
We're...
Since this is a contraction, it is correct. It does look like the possessive form, but that's just an idiosyncrasy of the English language. Even though it's correct, however, in formal writing, contractions are to be avoided since they're a lower form of the language.
