I don’t want to be a Spelling Nazi, but I have to correct this. “Calvary” is the hill where Jesus was crucified. “Cavalry” is a military unit.

Your not. I was reminding myself while typing not to make that mistake. I must have thought too hard. Thanks for the correction. Spelling is one thing but changing the entire meaning of a word is another.:-)

I like Spelling Nazis and Grammar Nazis, and I hope you'll continue to be one.

Freepers are smart people. They should not appear ignorant.

Recently one posted a sentence whose subject was "Her and her fans". I commented: "She and her fans".

I onced posted: "Toe the line". A Freeper corrected me. I appreciated it.
