Well, some of use enjoy nitpicking over other folks' spelling, too :-)

Funny, I never do that. It's always fun picking on a typo rather then addressing the issue, but since you're here, let me share with you an email I got the other day so we can both laugh, it's called - Men are like...

1.Men are like... Laxatives... They irritate the crap out of you.

2. Men are like... Bananas... The older they get, the less firm they are.

3.Men are like... Weather... Nothing can be done to change them.

4.Men are like... Blenders... You need one, but you're not quite sure why.

5.Men are like... Chocolate Bars... Sweet, smooth, & they usually head right to your hips.

6.Men are like... Commercials... You can't believe all they say.

7.Men are like... Department Stores... Their clothes are always 1/2 off.

8.Men are like... Government Bonds... They take soooooooo long to mature.

9.Men are like... Mascara... They usually run at the first sign of emotion.

10.Men are like... Popcorn... They satisfy you, but only for a little while.

11.Men are like... Snowstorms... You never know when they're coming.

12.Men are like... Lava Lamps... Fun to look at, but not very bright.

13.Men are like... Parking Spots... All the good ones are taken, the rest are handicapped.

Now, now.

I at least put a litte smiley face on my comment...

...and I think you'd agree that a gentle jibe over spelling, done in good taste, is preferable to just being interested in ..."other things".

BTW, you might like reading a contemporary translation of The Wife of Bath's Tale from Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales...

Cheers!
