Woo. That was a close one. I had “No Typograhical Error” in quotes for the title of this thread. I previewed, and “Crap! Where did my title go?”. Stupid, stupid, stupid. But it’s all fixed now.

Well, this sounds like a real challenge. Thank goodness I have horrible typing skills: press a key, look at the screen, press a key, look at the screen, etc. Ask Odieman how long it takes to talk to me on ICQ. (Hi, sweetie! Surgery is scheduled for the start of next week.)
I seem to be doing quite well so far. I’d better quit while I am ahead.
I can make egregious grammatical, etiquette, or logical errors, right? As long as there are no typing errors? I can boldly split infinitives and argue for the existence of Fairies? Defend officiating in the NBA or wear white shoes in November? Apply circular reasoning? Use sentence fragments?
im sorry I seam toi be loosing all of my typping skills. Their dosen’t apear to be any way to keep myself from comiting the typicle typing erros that appear from time too time on this message bored ocasionally. I here that happens alot, to. Please forgive me i am just a helpless newbie still in the shrink wrap, and i even still have that new poster smell. i hope you do’nt mind.
Too late, our intrepid hero Rue figures out a jim-dandy excuse…
No, what I meant to say was… uhhh…
See, I put “Typograhical” first. Then when it was in quotes, it disappeared (quickly checking the spelling of “disappeared”). So I was being painfully honest, and showing my mistake…
No,the truth is, I can’t even get one post right. (The first word in this post was spelled “To”. I caught that one.) (Also, “Then when it was in quotes…” started as “…was is quotes…”)

A life sized sculpture of Bob Saget! Carved out of a block of solid Velveeta!
(Audience: Oooooooo…)
An all expenses-paid trip to (checks screech-owl profile) Central Florida! Yes, lovely Central Florida. The Middle of America’s Wang.
(Audience: Aaaaaahh…)
And that’s not all! She also gets all the loose change out of my couch! Plus, about three handfulls of Goldfish Cracker Crumbs™, and dog hair!
(Audience: Wheeeeeee…)
To recieve your prizes, you merely have to make you way to the quite swank Casa Del DeDay in it’s Cincinnati-adjacent location. (Bob Saget sculpture not included. But you can have a brick of Velveeta and a butter knife.)

HEY! What is this! I go away to Argentina for a few days on business, and someone appropriates my good name and screen persona, and posts this drivel?!
And what’s up with all these darned typos? You’d think whoever stole my name would at least know how to write!
And deepbluesea, Little Ms. Smarty-Pants, (assuming you are a “Ms.”- some people are just too important to fill out even the most rudimentary biography) “it’s” in this case is not a “typo” at all. Nope. It is a usage error. And it wasn’t even that 250 years ago. So there. Nyah! You’re just probably jealous because the lovely screech-owl got the cheese sculpture. If it makes you feel better, you can have a humorous silhouette cut from a Kraft Single™.
Woo, all this spinning has got me nearly to puke. I have to go lay down, maybe I’ll stop being so cranky too… WAIT! It wasn’t ME doing all that spinning! No! I’m cranky from… from… JETLAG! Yeah! Jetlag! I wasn’t even here. I was in Brazil…NO! ARGENTINA!
OK. Rue can’t spell. Rue can’t type. Rue’s style book sucks. And the mysteries of spell-check are simply beyond him. (Note to self: re: next
thread: Spot the Typo.)
(for the last time in this stupid thread)
-Rue.
Just for you, Rue, I filled out my biography section. And I didn’t even correct any of the errors in your last post. (I was growing concerned about the effect on your health of all that spinning - didn’t want you to get dizzy, fall down, and whack your head.)
