Because that is how it is spelt in the UK.

You say tom-ay-toe and I say tom-ah-toe.

Edit - Hi Kyle!

Hi, Moomingirl!

Did you know I was referring to the chess piece knight?

Did you know if you have Windows 7 you can open a dictionary (found in Microsoft Works) and keep it minimized, instead of using Google so much? It's much more convenient. Mine's about worn-out with all the things these brilliant minds post. It might be offered in other Windows versions-----I don't know.....

Why must next-door-neighbors vacuum their patio when I need to sleep?

Sylkat, why don't you take your own vacuum cleaner with you and go to your neighbor and help them to finish the job earlier so you can sleep longer?

(I do, of course, admit that my reasoning isn't airtight.)

Did anyone notice I spelt vacuum wrong?

(Hopefully not. Usually autocorrect kicks in, but I think my ipad is too confused to know which language it is trying to spell these days.)

I will not help them to vacuum their stupid 'indoor/outdoor fake grass carpet stuff'.

It is their fault for buying it.

And I think you (MG) should spell anything any way you want to.

Can we start a thread trying to figure out what word you meant?

Was it a long reign?
Or was it a light reign?
Were they reigned in?

Could one of them have been Elisha? The other is most probably the Devil. God isn't dead, either.
