27 MAR 2008 at 9:15am Tinjaw Centurion Online Ode to a Spell Checker
I have a spelling checker
I disk covered four my PC.
It plane lee marks four my revue
Miss steaks aye can knot see.
Eye ran this poem threw it.
Your sure real glad two no.
Its very polished in its weigh,
My checker tolled me sew.
A checker is a blessing.
It freeze yew lodes of thyme.
It helps me right awl stiles two reed,
And aides me when aye rime.
Each frays comes posed up on my screen
Eye trussed too bee a joule.
The checker pours o'er every word
To cheque sum spelling rule.
Bee fore wee rote with checkers
Hour spelling was inn deck line,
Butt now when wee dew have a laps,
Wee are not maid too wine.
And now bee cause my spelling
Is checked with such grate flare,
There are know faults in awl this peace,
Of nun eye am a wear.
To rite with care is quite a feet
Of witch won should be proud,
And wee mussed dew the best wee can,
Sew flaws are knot aloud.
That's why eye brake in two averse
Caws Eye dew want too please.
Sow glad eye yam that aye did bye
This soft wear four pea seas.

sounds familiarI can stand brute force, but brute reason is quite unbearable. There is something unfair about its use. It is hitting below the intellect. Oscar Wilde

27 MAR 2008 at 9:55am Tinjaw Centurion Online Now that Brant has responded, a word of explanation. I had the good fortune to meet Brant in person yesterday. It was at dinner that I learned he referred to himself as a "Grammar Nazi". I couldn't resist the urge to post a properly spell checked post that would make him cringe. :-)
I also couldn't resist Bayonet's great offer and have sent in my $15 for a copy of World of Conflict. I look forward to trampling James in a game after getting a thorough analysis from Giles.
