Face it, some of us are just Grammar and Spelling control Idiots. When I see Shepherd spelled "Shephard," I get violently ill <G> well….…cringe maybe... same with loose for lose, dangling prepositions when not appropriate, "toot sweet,"and " Walla!" and more. But other than a gentle correction with words that count, (Shepherd!), I make enough grammar mistakes in writing to plead for my friend to edit what I write, and bless those who take the time to comment without engaging my inner control freak nature. Auto Correct is creating a lot of unintentional mistakes, too. :-( Stormy On Jan 24, 2013, at 5:30 PM, "Penny & Bill" <Ketchy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I don't think writing incorrect English makes others "look for what might be > wrong" or makes them "feel better" about themselves.
