I was just 'funnin' you with my spelling comment. I apologize if unintended offense was taken. I'm not that good a speller myself and the joke wasn't even my original. When the dealership told my wife her Buick needed a catylitic converter she actually said to him she "didn't even know it had a cadillac converter - what did she have to do?
It took forever to find this old email that I received back in 2007 that I remembered as perfect in this situation. I received an reply poking fun at a misspelled word in my email, and thinking I was clever when I spotted a misspelled word in HIS REPLY - I gave him a quick jab back. His response was "priceless" and I never forgot it.
You can use it on the next A*#@&hole that takes issue with your spelling.
HE SENT BACK ONLY THE FOLLOWING MESSAGE:

"On a positive note about my spelling, I found that if I would just learn how to correctly spell all words of three letters or less, AND if I learned the first and last letter of all bigger words (more than three), then I would be able to get thorugh lfie just fnie. I culod eevn ecxel at smoe tnhigs. Tihs is bcuseae of the phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid. I leraned bcak at Cmabridge Uinervtisy taht the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh? And I aw lyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt! Not so, unlses you are a splelnig tecaehr or soemtihng lkie taht. Srmat poelpe can raed this and aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht tehy are rdanieg. You see, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and all jmubled up and you can sitll raed it wouthit any porbelm. So, I try to use olny 3 or less if I can, and ohteriswe I awlyas try to get the 1st and lsat letetr in the rghit sopt. Then its not eevr a porbelm. But I aslo hvae to be caerful aoubt my dsylxiea, or poeple mghit tihnk I'm a fumduck."
