Spelling police? Pleeeeeze no...
Unless you NEVER make mental errors (its versus it's, your versus you're), please don't correct our mistakes. Rest assured, I always kick myself when I see a typo or grammatical error that I've made without anyone having to point it out. However, this board being named 'gab' implies a casual come-as-you are atmosphere...i.e. no spelling police. We will return the favor. Thanks!!! 
yes, but I did apologize for being the spelling police.
You can get in trouble for being spelling police here but as far as living
where I live, these places can be rural as well as in the city- I don’t want to put up with undesirables. Take that anyway you would like.
Cut the snippy remarks back and forth. Spelling police are not

spelling police beware the swift correction of the administrator! ha! nm

The consensus I've gotten from other tv forums on the 'net is that Tony was hit.
The reason the screen goes black goes back to the seen with Bobby in the boat on the lake when they say, "They say you never hear it coming." So the guy coming out of the bathroom whacked Tony, and that was it, lights out, and the last thing that Tony sees is Meadow coming through the door.
OK, that may be a very good explanation, but I still feel ripped off. First I thought the cable went out. Then when the credits rolled, I thought, "Maybe Tony got hit." And I waited to the end of the credits thinking that they would switch from Tony's point of view to maybe the family, or at least we'd hear the people in the restaurant screaming or something.
I hated the ending!
Report him to the police, let the police...
help you solve the problem.
It is obvious that you and your mom alone cannot do it on your own.
You are much too lenient, if you let it go on, it will not end well.
thank you MTStars for fixing authentication

Calling all MTStars chefs!!!
We have a 3-pound turkey breast fillet in our freezer, and we're trying to find some creative way to prepare it without it feeling like a repeat of Thanksgiving dinner.
Does anyone ever purchase these and would you like to share any recipes you have with me?
We were toying around stuffing it with prepared wild rice, and then roasting it with an apricot or cranberry glaze but I thought maybe you guys might have some terrific recipes you'd like to share.
TIA!!!
MTstars, I think it's really nice of you to do Xmas in July.

Lets see if this one stays or goes.
I get the spelling
correct for people I care about, enuff said?
I never one a spelling bee but
even in grade school when the teacher would announce spelling with 1 group on 1 side of the room, the other on the other side, I always had my hand raised first because something I loved to do. My kids told me 1 time they were glad I could spell and type, otherwise what in the world would I have done as far as making a living...
Our GPS is a Gamin (I believe that's the spelling)
I couldn't live without it. My husband said it's the best money we ever spent. And as someone said above, if you make a wrong turn it gets you right back on track. I would recommend one to anyone who has problems with directions. It also saves a lot of fighting when you're in the car with a man who won't stop for directions. LOL.
We resorted to spelling b-y-e but now he even knows that.
He also used to be able to tell time. Before my son got his license I had to pick he and his sister up from school every day. Casey knew exactly when to go lay by the door so he didn't miss out on his ride. LOL!
Okay here are the rumours LOL, sorry for the spelling
I did read in one of the soap mags (no longer buy them, just read them while in line at the grocery store) that Sabrina is definitely leaving the show. I also read elsewhere that it is rumored Sabrina and the baby will die in a car accident. Well, of course if Sabrina dies so will the baby. Anyway, I think Heather may get herself in danger with Walter since she is starting to connect him to David and Ji Min. It has shown in flashbacks that David killed Ji Min. Don't know why yet. He has ties with the mob and Walter is getting him to do the dirty work. Do you ever go to Soap City on the net? Here is the website.
http://www.sonypictures.com/tv/shows/soaps/index.html
They will give you daily recaps as well as a weekly preview. Any other questions just let me know. I take my lunchbreak during Y&R so I can watch. Each days episode is also on the soap channel at 7:00p.m.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
and don't correct my spelling...
I see my errors. LOL
probably----just love my spelling - nm

Campho-phenique (spelling??)
Patent leather (spelling?)
Shiny black would probably be pretty. What color are the flowers? If you like metallic, silver would probably look really pretty, too! Have fun!
i was going to use this if I had another girl. LOVE this name/spelling
as
Kalyn (or variation on spelling)
a little unusual, not quite the norm. Although my daughter is Kalyn and she gets called Kaitlyn a lot.
Carmex (spelling?)......in pharmacy OTC..
So true, spelling and math.
Wanna have a laugh, when at a store if the amount is something like 12.56 give the young clerk a twenty and a nickel and a penny and see the puzzled look you get. Then when they put the amount into the ''computer'' and see you will get 2 quarters back they are like OH! okay. This is our future generation. It is scary.
excuse the spelling errors nm

Interesting about the national spelling bee...
7 of the 10 finalists are Indian.. probably American raised, but there were a few parents in the audience in Indian garb. The winner's last name is Shivashankar (sp!). Man, though, all these kids are really sharp! They were allowed to ask questions about the origin of the words, etc.
How many of us MT's are former spelling bee winners? I bet lots. 8th grade county champ here. My final word was ptomaine.
I was the building spelling champ when
I was in 5th grade -- boy were the 6th graders mad. I was also on the 5th grade 3-kid all-star scholastic quiz team (kind of like jeopardy) and we beat the 6th graders that year, too! We didn't get to compete any further than within our own building.
Of course, as for the spelling bee last night, I only watched the last few rounds, but I couldn't spell any of those words. Whew! I was surprised at the questions they were allowed to ask. We were only allowed to ask definition and to use it in a sentence. The one last night asked what the root word was -- I'm not sure that should have been allowed.
Anyway, the winner definitely earned it!
well your english/grammar/punctuation/spelling
Who would want your rudeness around their children or good neighbors anyway? Since you seem to be just a judgmental person, perhaps there is some utopia somewhere for the likes of folks like you....hmmmmm? We wouldn't want you in the city nor the country as neighbors of our family, that's for sure, and WE DON'T IMBIBE...so there!
Rudeness and hate is taught in the home - now we know how it was for you.....poor thing....
Did anyone watch the national spelling bee last night...sm
and feel like a dunce like I did? My husband & I felt brilliant when we were able to spell the words they used.... but missed most.
Oh, but you didn't correct my spelling of "tooma,"
tooma for tumor, LOL.
And besides, the traditional spelling for the reply is,
"It's nodda tooma."
:oD
Cat's spelling is of one of the stars in a constellation. Forget

Presidential candidate Huckabee (spelling?) said that
Christmas is taken from "Christ mass" and therefore it is Christmas and he was going to continue to say "Merry CHristmas" - jest of his commentary on the radio the other day when questioned about it.
Tried, failed in math so could not figure, only do spelling!

Lucky, you! I am sorry I got the spelling of this gorgeous breed SM
wrong. I study dog breeds, know every one in the dog shows, etc. and then made that fo-pa. Not intentional, I assure you. They had the Pembroke and Cardigan. You would have loved it.
Yes. You must make a point to see this next year. It is so adorable and a change of pace for those of us who don't watch the football game. They have them on what looks like a football field with lots of toys and they are all running around, and they play a sound track in the bakground that sounds like fans cherring in the crowd!
Sorry for spelling Pinkie's name wrong in my post
 Oh man, sorry about that. Nothing worse than getting a name wrong.
And what would the police have done? I'm sure the police sm
have a lot of things going on they have to attend to, like traffic accidents, etc. What could the police have done in this situation? Make the lady take the dog to the vet? Take the dog themself? I don't know of any policeman who would have been able to do anything except maybe give the dog's owners a ticket for allowing loose dogs to lie in the street. Yes, it's a sad situation. But it was not the driver's dog. I don't think she had any obligation whatsoever to this dog or its owners. Dogs do not belong in the street!
I'd still try the police
Chances are good the little varmint is on their radar for something else. If they do come out, and if they manage to come out often enough, maybe Mom will get po'd enough to do something about it. Or maybe he'll do something stupid enough with the cops there that they take further action.
I used to love spelling bees too. However, I went to a Catholic school and......
they were required, just like learning the catechism. LOL. I have a TON of holy cards from my grade school years. But I'll be darned if I can remember the word I won my last bee with in 8th grade.
I told my son's 6th grade teacher that I was concerned about the fact that they didn't study spelling, or grammar, the old fashioned kind of subject, verb, and object grammer. Those of you who are in your 50's and plus will know EXACTLY what I am talking about. But that is a subject for a whole other discussion.
The police have enough to take care of besides
a person calling them if they got a card from an unknown person?? That is not what the police are for, them out investigating a birthday card and someone else is being robbed, assulted or whatever.. My goodness, think about your answer before you do post. The person on the post seems to be a caring person. If you have emergency, then the police should be called!!
Have you tried calling the police?
I live in a quiet suburb of a larger city and the police are very strict about keeping the peace and keeping out the riff-raff. I've been here about 16 months and I've called the police about 8 times. Other neighbors also call. Nothing much gets done because the hoodlumbs are too smart to be caught red-handed. But there's a long list at the police station of how many times the cops have been called to that address.
The police should be told about this, & maybe someone in the

You can get a police escort to go with you (sm)
If you have somewhere else you can go, you can get the police to escort you to get your things.
I would call the police for sure and
state to them you feel there is abuse going on. You can remain anonymous. I once went to look at a puppy for sale and the breeder brought him out into the living room. The puppy wouldn't even come out from under the table. It was so scared. I left there thinking I'd never seen a puppy act that way and it weighed on my mind. A few days later I read in the paper this man had been arrested for cruelty to animals. Trust your instinct and report this.
definitely would call police
and file a report. Then i would inform hospital that if the ring is returned within 24 hours, no charges will be filed, no questions. Otherwise it will be vigorously pursued.
And others can't help being the niceness police.
