BOB wants to know -
Why people can't spell DEFINITELY correctly.
It is spelled - D - E - F - I - N - I - T - E - L - Y.
It's really not that hard to remember - E - I - I - E.
BOB hates misspellings - and typos just JUMP off the page right in her face!
BOB doesn't think that people realize that it makes them look stupid.
The problem these days seems to be that they don't CARE if they look stupid.
BOB just can't wrap her head around that AT ALL!
They don't read anymore.
They can't do math.
And now they aren't teaching cursive in schools anymore -
so much for readin', writin', and 'rithmetic, huh?
I have to laugh when they mix up words -
conversation - conservation
calvary - cavalry
know - no
knew - new
your - you're
their - there - they're
to - too - two
though - thought - through - thorough - tough
Hey guys - they're spelled differently - BECAUSE they are DIFFERENT WORDS!!
But then again - it's probably just me.

I so agree, but you knew (not new)
I would.
It's not just you. I hate typos, too. I local small town paper is full of them. I just met BOB today. I like her!
too much reliance on spell check, me thinks.
I know this post is for the way back but I just found your blog this morning in a round-about way from your OTHER blog. (Farmer's Wife Sampler and copyright--companion CD) Surfing is fun.
I dearly love your post about UFOs! It should be printed off and distributed to any quilter that dares to utter, I have to finish up something before I can do (fill in the blank) and that includes ME. Heck, I'd even stitch it up in a sampler!
