Ok that's cute, where's the moose- I'm waiting for the moose. I think it is one word, technically speaking.

MooseAndSnaffle?

[MooseAndSquirrel]

You're having a good laugh- care to let the rest of the sane world in on it? Oh wait, I'm a little slow (the moose stubbed a toe)-- obviously something to do with spell-checking and butchering the language- I think I get it now!

[MCaver]

It's from cc.com.

I see the animation is, those rascals over there are also mocking the good M&S name as well?

[MCaver]

No, it is tradition over there to get a "pagetop", getting the first post on a page of the thread and topping it with the little furry guy above, also known as a "snaffle". Thus, MooseAndSnaffle.

Wowsers, that obscure fact made my day!

[mgd]

Er, in a spellchecker thread, why not use real words??? "Wowsers" is not a real word. The spellchecker chokes on it.

[mgd]

Oops, I can't believe I have to eat my words. Please pass the salt n' pepper. Wowser Never assume.

[MooseAndSquirrel]

Yeah never assume. Don't push me or I'll break out my Swahili and Tongan, that'll really rock your pathetic world.

[mgd]

Well I'll call your bluff on that one. You may know enough Swahili and French to be pardoned, but if you know Tongan I'll eat my sombrero. Of course I know some Tongan myself. I live in Tongo during the winter. Best kept terces ecalp around. Translate this! TONGO! TONGO! JIM DIDDY MAH EE MAH EE AY! JIM DIDDY MAH EE MAH EE AY! TONGO! TONGO! OOP DIDDY OOP DIDDY KUMBAYA! OOP DIDDY OOP DIDDY KUMBAYA! OOO AH NAY! OOO AH NAY! MALI PAW MALOO WAY! MALI PAW MALOO WAY!

Yep, by the end of winter I'm so tired of that cramped up old cart that I'd just as soon live anywhere else. That's when I give the donkey a boot in the ribs and cry "Yah!", "Yah!", and head back to the adobe abode. Hmmm...adobe abode. That is a twongue twister.

Anybody else having a problem with our SPELLCHECKER, or is it just me. On my computer it's been taken over by a couple of the resistant spyware and adware pirates, particularly the insideous "about blank". Neither Norton nor my Spy Sweeper can cope with them, so it may be a "personal problem". And that is a problem, because my spelling is atrocious.
