PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE SPELLING KIND:

You pore over books.

You pour syrup on pancakes.

Do not get these two confused. It could result in Unfortunate Circumstances of the Sticky book kind.

A "Whig" is a member of a colonial political party. They opposed autocratic rule. Daniel Webster was a "Whig".

A "wig" is a hairpiece.

Do not get those two confused. I often imagine that you are wearing a colonial gentleman on your head. While this may be funny, it does not make sense.

Ha! Don't forget- congratulations. Some people seem to honestly believe there's a D in there. Oh, ever since I started playing world of warcraft, I'm just appalled on a daily basis by the general chat that goes on at the bottom of the screen. I know some of the kids are young but, the spelling is just god awful.

I don't consider myself much of a grammar/spelling freak, but, a little effort goes a long way with these kinds of things. Most of these kids aren't even trying...and for God's sake when did "nite" become acceptable? I see that all the time.

I write "congradulations" but only to RATMMers. The right people will get it. The right people and Stephen Ratliff.
