I don't know why but I take pride in my spelling. My mom wasn't an english teacher and I don't have much more than a high school diploma so not sure where that comes from.

You must either be a good typer or have way more time then me to be posting. My post count is as low as it is because I spend way too much time proof reading.

Did you read the above paragraph? I am sure you did. The actual paragraph is below:
I could not believe that I could actually understand what I was reading.
The phenomenal power of the human mind.
According to a research at Cambridge University, it doesn’t matter in what order the letters in a word are.
The only important thing is that the first and the last letter be in the right place. The rest can be a total mess and you can still read it without a problem.
This is because the human mind does not read every letter by itself, but the word as a whole.
Amazing Huh? yeah – and I always thought that spelling was important…

if the worst that happened is he wants us to fuc'n not discrace the English language... so be it.... but fuc 'em , I aint going back to school...
I come from the viet nam era...most my buddys came back with U.S. Flag blankets.....
I'd shake his hand and buy him dinner any day of the week.....

Yea, but some of your posts suggest you got your diploma in Arkansas. It's cute though, don't change it.

I'll say this, and then I'll stop, because talk about the other site is not smiled on over here, warranted or not, but the whole thing he did with the way I got booted, made me a believer that this is a better site from the get go, and I wasted a lot of time over there when I should have been over here.....I'm a believer in HB, and hopefully will be here for a long time....
