> Hey, join the club on the grumpy day!

Grumpy days happen. Best not to let them get you down. Don’t pay too much mind to my grumpy feedback. Spell-check is your friend, and a dictionary is an even better friend.

So is reading the piece aloud before posting it — you will catch a surprising number of mistakes that way. What looks good on paper may sound awful when read aloud — that’s a great signal to re-word things.

(My grand-daddy was a proofreader for a newspaper many years ago).

Anyrate, goodonya for posting.

Check ya, mate!
