For the good spelling brigade
 

I've just thought this pic was quite funny that's all:

i saw a good 'lesbians against bush' banner on here once.

Where was that one that said, "Get a brain, moran" [sic].

Funn-ee

You may notice that all the T's in that photo are crucifixes.

You should never have set such a personal high standard of posting. I now have this inexplicable compulsion to scrutinize your comments. This being a segue to:

Not all of the "t's."

Good spelling from me comes on an "as needed" basis.

i think you need to get out more. put some fun into your life.

i like the oxes album with all the slogans and banners. i dont like the oxes though.

If the guy holding the banner was my real dad i'd probably would be an expert autodidact in the joys of gambling

R u cummin 0n 2 mi?

I should say at this point, I actually dumped a girl for her low level of literacy a year or so ago.

Cry me a river......

The fact that you went out with her in the first place is a bit alarming.

She was really, really cute and somewhat dirty. A shame really, physically she was top notch, smelled nice, incredibly nice and fun person... just couldn't spell for the life of her. And was a little young. Not illegal young, just young.

Oh that'll be Big Brother's Chantelle then!

Migrant worker?

Which naturally makes me curious as to your age.

As for the above-mentioned, if good hygiene is that difficult of an attribute for you to encounter, I can think of a few things you may be doing incorrectly.

Glice?He looks about 350 years old in drag.

Which is nothing when you are comparing it to someone not in drag.

Ah, the allure of both the young and short-legged, and the elderly and feeble - limited ability of evasion.

since feeling is first
by e.e. cummings

since feeling is first
who pays any attention
to the syntax of things
will never wholly kiss you;

wholly to be a fool
while Spring is in the world

my blood approves,
and kisses are a far better fate
than wisdom
lady i swear
by all flowers. Don't cry
--the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids' flutter which says

we are for eachother: then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life's not a paragraph

And death i think is no parenthesis

ha . . . jeezus wuld wancha t' spel gud. i must note, however, that after 4 years of catholic school i know that those are not crucifixes, but crosses . . . a crucifix has an image of jesus on it and is generally used in catholic churches, whereas a cross does not and is generally used in protestant churches.

every year in middle school, my goal was to go to the scripps national spelling bee. i never made it past regionals.

The 2006 Scripps National Spelling Bee is live on ESPN right now.

The final rounds will be on abc tonight at 8 pm eastern; it'll be the first time the event has been televised in prime time.

hilarious.

on a related note-- are you WATCHING it? :D

Yep...off & on I am...

there's only been a couple of words so far that I was completely unfamiliar with & gave me trouble.

ew...spoke too soon...it's starting to get tougher.

ha ha. that's funny man. i want your job.

(i am one to speak, as i've wasted a whole morning on this forum :D)

That might be because the seeing of two minds is generally more recognized by the singular qualities of the ear in respect to the general attention of the insect..........i'm not to sure about this though.

Business is really dead today after picking up earlier in the week. My business has been worse than usual since July 4th.
(which really fucks with the shell game)
It comes in waves. Most days the phone rings at least twice an hour if not non-stop. Today I've only gotten like three phone calls & two orders online.

pl. me·nin·go·coc·ci (a bacterium)

I could have sworn this was pronounced cocci (coss-eye) not (cock-eye)...so I checked & the judge did say it right.

just a minute ago the judges had to review audio tape because they didn't hear the word the speller spelled...crazy, I & the announcers heard it just fine.

This guy just got eliminated tryng to spell "ouvert" which is a ballet move.
He tried to spell it "houver", which was pretty funny.
They give you some time to play along at home before the spelling is displayed on the screen.

I just got a phone call & an order.

Coverage is over now & they are in round 7 heading into the prime time broadcast...I didn't get a chance to see how many spellers are left. I think around twenty.

This looks like such a torturous and emotionally scarring event.

that one kid was trembling as the judges reviewed the tape.

it made you think he was gonna bawl when he got eliminated, because he was wrong.

I went to state twice for both years in junior high but that was it. Every time I can ever remeber having a school or class spelling bee I remember winning. Back in my day, it wasn't even like this thing that you always were able to participate in every year which was probably due to the shitty pre-high school schools I went to on the Mississippi Gulf Coast & the shitty high school in Southeast Georgia I attended.

I'll probably check some of the final out tonight as I flip back & forth from The Office mini-marathon on NBC.

Now, I'm currently in the midst of getting very busy all of the sudden.

Some days I'm busy the whole time from anywhere as early as 8:30 all the way until 6:30.
