Well, just damn, if the damned teachers would teach the stuff we were taught-there would be no reason to dumb down spelling.
I am not the greatest speller in the world, but there are dictionaries, spell check, and a myriad of other tools, some not in place when I was in school.

So how’s your day curmudgeon?
I’m doing fine, sitting here in the coffee shop and writing, and watching people.
Just had a great laugh, some women were sitting at a table near me and chatting up on the jewelry one woman was wearing. She had spent $1,500 for ‘Custom Carved Jewelry’ made from (wait for it) endangered Species Woods from South America. According to what she told her friends, she bought the jewelery to ‘help’ some organization in Brazil to ‘protect’ the endangered trees of certain types of hardwoods. I had seen her pull up out front, getting out of a huge Hummer and when I went out to check, I saw as my buddy had indicated this same enviro-conscious chick had a ‘Sierra Club’ sticker on the back of her Hummvee! I have to say, the thought processes of some folks is quite entertaining!!!
