Message that I can turn a phrase or too, I mean two. Just a weak spot in my background or brain, I guess. Sometimes I think about what I am writing ahead of time, but often on here I am typing as fast as I can to try and keep up with my thoughts. I agree that as long as the message is comprehendible (I wish someone would tell me the difference between that word and "comprehensible"), then I pretty much am not going to get caught up in the spelling & grammar. What really cracks me up are the double meanings or the mistakes that give alternate meanings to what the person is trying to say. I will call the those out, if for nothing else, the entertainment value. Funny thing, TT.net used to not be so anal about grammar, but I like the shift. I tell myself the type of person that, I mean "who," would own a Z, would also care about such stuff. Lolam.
