When I do get critism, sometimes it's about what I wrote, sometimes it's about how I wrote, and sometimes it's about Spelling. In fact allot of the time it's about spelling. To put it quite frankly spelling is not one of my better abilities. Some people are much better at it than I. But my response is this: So?
When I mispell a word, or overlook a typo, I don't think that detracts from what I say. The English language is needlessly complicated. It's a language that's a mixture of every single European language. For example, lets say I mispell something, like oh... "Patience," which I wish certain nit-pickers had, and we to mispell it ,"Patiance," with an A where an E should be. Now look at it put into a sentance: "I wish more people had a bit more patiance."
Now, it hardly interferes with the point of what I'm saying here. You can still tell what it's saying without much difficulty asuming your not an obbsessive compulive spelling maniac. If that letter A in that word, along with my liberal views, are driving you ballistic, you may as well exit my page now and visit someplace where your obsessive needs will be pampered.
If the spelling isn't driving you crazy, and you can handle my page without feeling the urge to drop a Two-Million ton anvil on either my head or a federal building, by all means feel free to stay.
Further into Spelling:The Dan Quayle Legacy
Some people, becuase I'm such an awful speller, like to call me a hypocrite for thinking Dan Quayle is a boob. Though, I admit, I'm guilty of chuckling when I first heard about the "potatoe" insident, I also felt a bit sorry for Dan Quayle there. My criticism of his mental capabilities comes not from the potato insident. Every politician will make a silly error and sticks his/her foot in their mouths on occasion. Clinton has, Gore has, Dole has, Gingrich has. Quayle's problem is that he did it... allot.
And I mean ALLOT!
Becuase he accidently got tricked into thinking Potato had an E at the end, alone, does not qualify him as a fool. Even when paired up with the '88 VP Debate insident. But, the man trips over himself constantly. Before you know it he doesn't live in this century, and,"We have the smartest Americans in the world."
So, hopefully, our Republican candidate in 2000 will be Quayle, and the republicans will fall apart, once again.
Life is good :)
"I've heard people say that [I have a short attention span]. I don't feel I do, because when I'm interested in something I'll stay in focus as long as it is necessary... If you get off on something I'm not very interested in, it's very easy for me to block it out. It's easy for me to block things out." -- Vice President Dan Quayle, 12-JAN-92
