Why is this in the words category?  Because I'm wishing spammers would get their just deserts.  And if more than two people read this entry, I would be guaranteed an e-mail informing me that dessert is spelled with two Ses.  They would even tell me that I can remember it because dessert is yummy and you always want to go back for seconds.

These people and the most annoying kind of prissy spelling nazis.  They are the kind who are wrong, but spread their misinformation anyway.

Tell me, spelling nazi... how do you spell dessert in this sentence:  "One out of every 100 recruits deserts the armed forces." ? 

That's right.  Homophones are a bitch, aren't they?

And as for "Just Deserts", the deserts in question are NOT the final course to a meal. Deserts are what you deserve. Not what you desserve.

Don't believe me?  Google it.

Her condiment of choice, on her egg sandwich?  Strawberry jam.

You know what I hate?  People who use four-leaf-clovers as symbols associated with St. Patrick. It's Shamrocks, you morons.  And it's a significant difference.  The whole freakin' point of the Shamrock thing in the first place was the fact that it has THREE leaves.

Now I know that your box of Lucky Charms has four-leaf clovers in it.  Here's a newsflash - it's a fucking breakfast cereal, dumbass.

Gastronomic Mono-Culture.  When I first heard it I was so taken by it that i repeated it out loud.  More than once.

I was listening to the CBC during my drive home from work, and they were interviewing Taras Grescoe, a Montreal-based journalist who has just published a book called The Devil's Picnic: Around the World in Pursuit of Forbidden Fruit.

Last year I gave up Diet Coke for Lent.

This year I am giving up taxis.

This should be interesting.

Egg Nog.

Mine was fantastic, I hope yours was too.

My audience here is small, so I can say this: I love you all. My new friends and my old friends.

And my very old friends.

Hee!

Your current video card is still a bit on the over-powered side. As is your entire computer.  You do not need an upgrade.  You really don't need a $650.00 upgrade that has as much memory as most of your friend's computers.

Sincerely,

Infamy
