Eye Halve a Spelling Chequer

Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.

Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.

As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rarely ever wrong.

Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect in it's weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.

...on punctuation!  The random use of apostrophes is always interesting.....

(as opposed to the random use of apostrophe's)

But then, UK English compared to US English is often different so I  find that interesting on TER too :)

Winston Churchill was famous for ending his sentences with a preposition.  After many years, his famous response was (you must know this one, Carrie)  "that is a pendantry up with which I will no longer put!"

I check.  Further, I feel badly if misspellings get through.  Is there some 7 step program for me???

It's amazing some people can't spell the word MASSAGE correctly.  When I read; "She gave me a message" I was wondering if she was also answering his phone too?  Now that's service!
