It should be mentioned that Hellen and Myrtle were the twin daughters of Lief Raeker, a wealthy business tycoon specializing in lawn care products.

It never fails, anyone who tells someone else on the forum that they need to spell correctly makes a mistake while doing it.

But a Gene Pokorny MASTERSLASS would be good to go to!

As poor a typist as I am, I was quite unhappy when my son's first through third grade teachers would tell us that they didn't worry about speeing, grammar, or punctuation.....
But it was California after all... :evil:

Well, that, and its also on the mouthpiece, too, and about a million places on the website he posted the link to.

If you can't spell, at least take the easy way out and cut and paste the name or quote from the original website. That way, if it's wrong, you at least have someone else to blame!

Fortunately, my son's third grade teacher is concerned about spelling. He has to study a list of words almost a page long every week.

If the 1st through 3rd grade teachers are not that concerned about spelling in California, I'm beginning to see the origins of some of the West Coast social problems.

California has social problems? You must be kidding! Say it isn't so!

Hey tubazar -- I'm on my first day of antibiotics today with a bad case of bronchitis and can't practice. I even had to miss community band practice this evening.

As for the others, they speak a language with which I am not familiar, although being a simple cipher, as evident by the cereal box, and if I'm not over it and at work tomorrow, I just might have time to figure it out!
