DUAL not duel. DUH!
 
I love people who cant spell!
DUAL as in Dual Band.

I get a laugh out of ebay when I search for duel.

It's "can't" rather than "cant".

It's also correctly...

I get a laugh out of ebay sellers' descriptions when I search for "duel".

I've snagged many a good bargain on eBay because someone misspelled a
vital part of the model name or number.

Hint: If you are looking for a model ab-123, look for ab123, ab 123,
123, ab, etc.

Then again, with some of the fights that break out on the air these
days, "duel" might be applicable after all....

But what if you were looking for a nicely hand crafted matched pair of
flint lock pistols???

;-)


I don't hold out any hope for the English language, illiteracy rules...
The adverb is dying, and others say "I talk too negative."
(sadly, you might get the joke therein, but most will not.)

__________________________________________________ _______

The plural of Yankee has no apostrophe.
As a proper noun it should be capitalized, except by Confederates.
There's no such word as jist.

Other than that, a fine, fine post, well worthy of someone who calls
himself hogman17.

This topic reminded me of a friend who speaks 7 languages and works as
a Translator in the United Nations...He spells terrible...but
speaks/enunciates
perfectly...In translation (during meetings...simultaneous
broadcast)he is about three words behind the speaker. So what does
spelling has to with his job. just $.02
