My friends and I all agree that if every word in a Cheezehead post was spelled correctly, we would think that you had been taken over by aliens!  |

I used to use Spelling Cow when I first started posting here, but then it "broke", so I got out of the habit. When was the last time it worked? I think it was a couple of years ago that I last "checked". |

Trekkin' loves this Mark Twain quote.....
"It's a poor mind that can only spell a word one way."
I realize it doesn't help the immediate question, but hey! You're in good company! |

Download a copy of iSpell from a trusted site like cNet.com It's a free spell checker that's never further than a right click away. You can use it on any page or program (for the most part).
