A Spell Check Nightmare...

I know that many of you have seen this already in an e-mail, (probably in one from me that I didn't run spell check on...), but I received it a while ago, and thought I would share it with the people that haven't seen it.  it is pretty amazing how it works.

"Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a total mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe."

Since the complex mind unscrambles letters and makes sense of them subconsciously I don't notice misspellings...  so spell check is not about grammar as much as to just get rd of the annoying squiggly red lined under a "misspelled word".  If you believe that, you probably haven't received an e-mail from me lately

This is Fathers Day weekend, and it is going to be a beautiful weekend.  I think this will be the day that Maggie and her parents get to go and play in her new pool, that may now be a few degrees above freezing after the sunny days of this week.  we got one of the ones with the blow up ring at the top and is basically just a 30 inch tall bag o' water.  I think it will be a good way to go outside and get cooled off this summer.  I am also planning on going to Dairy Queen on 72nd Ave on Sunday to get a free blizzard that they are giving out to Dads all day according to the radio.  I like me my blizzards and free is even better.  I can't miss that one!!
