You guys are so sweet. It's nice to know you missed me. Janie......glad to hear you're still enjoying the CD of my show. It's funny because I found 6 CD's of previous shows I did and I have no clue what is on them. Have to give them a listen this weekend. I'll keep everyone updated on Dusty. He did have an accident on the bed this morning. He has been doing good for a few weeks so I hope it is a one-time thing. SamKaren your resident DJ

Toni! You were the only one I thought was still missing but you've just changed your name....I like it! None of us like this look and I keep hoping that Houzz will get creative on us once things settle down a bit. In the meantime, they've been doing everything possible to make requested changes. Asleep, I have heard the same rumors. That would have been a shocker!

Georgysmom, think nothing of it! There's also reasoning behind it, like if it were a real word there'd be a vowel--your brain just decides it must be seeing an i. I used my screen name in my explanation of how you can determine carelessness, up topic, because I happen to be blessed with a hard to mangle name IRL. As to correcting people online, I do trot out the all caps every so often, to put the information out there, but it would be really annoying if I corrected everyone every time. I'm sure it must be the same in real life. If someone's writing down your name, it makes sense to spell it out. I do sometimes, with my hard to mangle name. If you're being introduced, and you want to give the person a chance to spell your name right in the future, it makes sense to just come out with, "I'm Suzy -- s-u-z-y" or "Kathy with a K". If the person has a hard time pronouncing your name, it makes sense to spell it if it'll help, or give a sounds alike, or both. "Danilo, d-a-n-i-l-o, rhymes with Barry Manilow." It makes me laugh when people try to correct Brett Favre to Brett Fave - ruh. The man should know how to pronounce his own name, even though, obviously, his family's way of saying it parted company with the spelling some time back. The issue comes if it doesn't take. I wouldn't interrupt a conversation if someone came and joined in and mispronounced my name, and I wouldn't send back a letter with corrections if it were misspelled. Perhaps that's my hard to mangle name talking, however. I have studied names and naming, and find them very interesting, but I'm not good at remembering them, and terrible at spelling in general, which puts me on the opposite side of the issue. I'll just come right out and say, "Please forgive me, but I've already forgotten your name. Please tell me again?" Or, "Will you please spell it for me?" In my experience, people understand and would rather be asked than dismissed as old whatshername. I think they're glad that one cares to know.

Well, I missed #1 because I thought it was "The last cent." The arrow points to only one cent - not cents. There should have been two rows in order for it to be cents. The others I got, although for #2, I thought it was "Sums it up," since it was plural. I'll have to take into consideration the liberties they are taking with plurals in the future. This will give me more options.
