Re: [chat] Re: [SLUG] Stop This Off Topic Rambling


A spelling rant would be met with a deafenning silence. I know how to
spell but am not as nimble on a keyboard and with unimportant emails I
don't bother to check my spelling.

IIRC Phsycology is a Phys/Ed and Psychologyadouble major, isnt it?

Upon further examination the letters were right, just in the wrong
order. Hence a spelling rant would no doubt be met with an "apt punish
mary for being a pedant"

:)
