I count 4 typos in all.
I think someone need to enable a spellchecker of some sort, or not.

I think it is because her reg pc is down and maybe she is using one of those lappys with the flat keyboard. I know that I can't type worth a dam on mine, I spend most of the time back spacing and correcting... and maybe frustrated too about her internet. or wifi or one of those.

I knew a guy on DA that made it a point to type using all typos, that was his style. It became quite cryptic when having long conversations with him.
It's interesting, but after a while it can get annoying. It isn't something I could recommend anyone doing on purpose.

I am not doing it on purpose. it is because I am typing on a 3" mobile phone/cell keypad. Oregonian got it correct. I meant lease which seems to change daily. Today it says it expires tomorrow.
Molly i cant type for nuts on my lappy either. Thank goodness I have a keyboard attached to it.
GT i have photos in my Flickr account of my modem. If you cant find the link here, Lyle may .be able to give you a link.

Whoohoo I am back online! My officer had a look at it and must have given it a magic touch. Don't know why it wasn't connecting but I guess it doesn't matter now as long as I am back on.
Guess I will have to try and catch up on all that I have missed.

That's great and sorry about the comment about your spelling. I wasn't aware of your situation.

It's ok Wallace. I didn't get upset about it.
Usually I am careful to spell correctly and have only made a few other typos here previously.
A friend of mine often gets her &'s and 7's mixed up but I have got used to it now and can tell if it is just a typo.

No, I've never been in the military. He is a Salvation Army Officer/Minister. The Salvation Army uses some military language though.
