Wow! I thought you could only dangle a participle... :-)
I guess in a.s.a you can dangle just about anything you please...

Yep, lots of dangling modifiers/participles here - sometimes makes for

Most of us do it, we dangle modifiers like they're Michael Jackson's kids
out a window.

No, we hung out at nice anchorages and had dinner at fine restaurants.
