  A Plan for the Improvement of English Spelling
  

  by Mark Twain
  

  For example, in Year 1 that useless letter "c" would be dropped to be replased either by "k" or "s," and likewise "x" would no longer be part of the alphabet. The only kase in which "c" would be retained would be the "ch" formation, which will be dealt with later. Year 2 might reform "w" spelling, so that "which" and "one" would take the same konsonant, wile Year 3 might well abolish "y" replasing it with "i" and Iear 4 might fiks the "g/j" anomali wonse and for all.

  Jenerally, then, the improvement would kontinue iear bai iear with Iear 5 doing awai with useless double konsonants, and Iears 6-12 or so modifaiing vowlz and the rimeining voist and unvoist konsonants. Bai Iear 15 or sou, it wud fainali bi posibl tu meik ius ov thi ridandant letez "c," "y" and "x"--bai now jast a memori in the maindz ov ould doderez--tu riplais "ch," "sh," and "th" rispektivli.

  Fainali, xen, aafte sam 20 iers ov orxogrefkl riform, wi wud hev a lojikl, kohirnt speling in ius xrewawt xe Ingliy-spiking werld.

  The McKenzie Brothers

  Inspiration for songs like this:

  Oh, I wish I was back in old Canada,
  A land which I never shall lampoon!
  How I pine for the ice covering Lake Manitoba,
  And the beauty that is Saskatoon!
  
  Oh, I wish I was stuck in the hills of Alberta,
  Drinking beer with some big dumb guy trapping fur!
  
  As he scraped and chiseled all the moose dung off his boots,
  I would learn that he's the Prime Minister!
  
  Oh, I wish I was in the land gave us Peter Jennings,
  Alanis Morissette, Mike Myers, too!
  
  No, I take that back, I wouldn't go there even if you paid me,
  Oh, Canada, you are a place I must eschew!
  
  Oh, I wish I was blowing up Prince Edward Island,
  And going on to bomb Ontario!
  The destruction of Canada and all of its culture,
  Is by far my fav-o-rite scenario!
  
  Just where the hell does Canada get off sharing a border
  With countries far superior to it?
  
  Why, you lousy, stinking, francophonic, bacon-loving bastards,
  Your country's just a giant piece of sh..." — MST3K

  Actually, my 11 year old was reading over my shoulder earlier and was very impressed by Jedi Master. How do I get that?

  I remember that they're probably getting paid minimum wage (meaning that they would pay you less if they could) and wish them the best.

  Mel Gibson is out of control

  this is some hilarious tomfoolery.

  his charles manson-esque beard doesn't seem to help, either.. mel may be a powerful guy, but something tells me there'll be a price to pay for his anti-semitic remarks, even if they were made in a sauced-up state.

  Why is the Victim Always Wrong?

  by Warlock in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i lurked here for about 6 or 7 months, before i started posting.. i have read experience after experience in which the victim of gossip, slander, abuse in the congregation is the one who is made to feel like they are the ones who need to apologize, when they are the ones that need the apology from the perpetrators of the injustice.. .

  one theme that continues to repeat itself in the congregation is this: the victim is always wrong and the victimizer is always right.

  Perhaps because it makes those who stood by and did nothing feel better about themselves?

  Boycotting Israel

  by Crumpet in

  i see that quite a few are following the dreadful attacks in lebanon.

  today i went swimming to cool off with mr c and we were discussing what ways we could make our disapproval and anger at israels actions felt, besides being human shields.

  (mr c reckons i'm big enough to stop one missile, but would be pretty useless after that.
