Who needs spellcheck?

I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I'm wdgtieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in what oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is that the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh? Yaeh, and I awlyas toughht slpeling was ipmorantt!

Besides, we have products that look like they should read UMM! TOE JELLY, Kuiet, Oral Thrills, Teal, Aireal, Say Wha, etc. Actually, it may be more audiophoolish to ban Spellcheck.

What other products come to mind?

Wow, that's pretty amazing research! I read it as if it were typed correctly.

I've heard old friends of Ozzy Osbourne say the same thing about him. Just pay attention to the first and last word of his rambling and you'll get exactly what he means.

No Papertrail, but apparantly you didn't read Lugnut's post thoroughly, heheh. And I quote...

"it deosn't mttaer in what oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is that the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae."

Do they have spellcheck for Pig Latin?

Hey fellas, for a guy like me that routinely purposely reads things backwards or pronounces everything I see phonetically, Lugnut's discovery is like sweetened slop for the hog.

The fruits of your effort are evident when you show up for class [these days work] the next morning looking and sounding like you just came from the dentist. Nothing like an uncontrollably sore tongue and lips to give away your previous nights escapades. That and a very sore chin to go along with it.

But on the bright side, the cute college interns and the lusty women in the office have seen that look before and know the cause.

Pain and effort in a noble cause is often rewarded.

"Utter disgust"??!!!!

That was definitely her loss, Pat. I would have thought she would have been giving you a wink and the green light when she saw the fine floss on your napkin!

The girls must have really enjoyed your chin polishing skills, given the beautiful nest of hair on your chin, heheh.
