Do you use a spell checker?

My Google Toolbar has a spell checker built into it so it is easy to make sure I don't misspell any words and works well with Garden Web.

I never know when I might run onto a retired English teacher that will check my spelling and give me a hateful remark. Hey, don't laugh, it has happened to me more than a few times. LOL

So do you have a spell checker and do you use it?

Here is a link that might be useful: Google Tool Bar

    Thanks Sam. I two hat to make typos or mispellings in pasts, but don't feel along in the spelling dept, most of us make those mistake on a doily basis.

    Sometimes *sigh* I'm extraordinarily dyslexic. It puts a limitation on my ability to write well and effectively. It takes longer to spell check than write the actual post. You should see my handwriting! I've actually played with the idea of going back to school when my DH has a less intense school schedule. I think enrichment classes in English grammar and Calligraphy would help quite a bit. (I made 3 mistakes on this post alone! EEEKKK!) PJ

    Brenda, this is off the topic, almost, sort of, but, I have a poem for you. One of my all-time favorites, here recited especially for you, girl!

    Hgrrmm. (clearing my throat)

    ^ ^ My nose is runny
    ^ ^ when I kiss my honey
    ^ ^ you may think it's funny
    ^ ^ but it snot.

    (taking a bow)

    :) Mary

    *Btw, thanks for the KF action!*

    LOL!! Thanks so much, Mary! We need a little (ok, a LOT) of that lately, it seems, huh?

    *Oops, KF was a typo! Realization after the fact, but no matter now. :D No, I didn't use a spell checker for that. ;)*
