  i was reading a novel by a british author, robert goddard.

  i have read several of his books but in this one, "past caring" he spells the word "connexion" instead of "connection".

  i had never seen that spelling before.

  Tal, LOL, I think 'bestest' better than 'worser'. I had a three year old who used 'worser' so much she had me saying it!

  It's true that the proliferation of texting, and internet-speak, has truly 'dumbed down' the way we communicate. It has its good and bad sides, but still, I feel that that basics of grammar, like math, are the necessary building tools of a good education.

  Absolutley. I was sailing along through the above referenced novel when I came across the spelling of 'connexion'. It stopped me for a moment and then recurred several times in the book. It was a distraction but turned out it is correct. Not so with butchered syntax, etc. I am not a well educated man but I do appreciate proper structure.

  I read Charles Dickens every couple of years. By the time I finish Oliver Twist, for the 7th time, I feel my own language/vocabulary has been given a tonic.

  For an appitizer, I love battered, deep fried, cheese stuffed jalapenos. Perfect side for an ice cold beer. Easy to make, but you can buy them frozen.

  For an entree, check out some curry recipes. Chicken, Beef, Pork and fish can all be prepared with curry recipes that can blow the top of your head off.

  Joliette,

  Your thread is very appropriate and well stated. Anyone on the net must have their ears and eyes open for stuff that is not good.

  Thank you.

  No offense intended, NC. I should have read more carefully.

  That being the case, what is the meaning behind the expression Scarlett Breast?

  By cordless do you mean it heats off batteries? Amazing.

  There are also kettle that have remote red light flashers but they are pricey!

  Do you have to go outside to have a fag? Careful where you leave your butts.
