Nope. Just poof, gone.
Huh. I'm so out of the loop on the whole thing.
I can identify with the kid mixing up the j and g. I was eliminated from a bee by spelling "journey" with a g. I totally thought I had said "j". But since I wasn't all that interested in being up on stage it didn't bother me much.
Oooh, thunderstorm. Makes me want to nap.
Good thunderstorm. And I just got home, so perfect timing. Yay me!

I can't speak and spell. Have to write it.
I've always hated spelling bees. I spell fairly well, generally speaking. Bees were torture and hell.
I love Buffistas. Of COURSE we all remember what word we spelled incorrectly in the spelling bee! (Grade 6, city-wide bee, "smorgasbord." I thought it had an "A" in the "b-o-r-d" part.)
Any idea what is objectionable about a spelling bee?
According to one of the Spelling Bee blogs I've been following, "the contest has drawn a good sized crowd of protesters who are demanding an increase in the number of words that are spelled phonetically. I kid you not."
I think this picture says it all. I wish this were a joke, but it's not.

Man, ever since grade school, my friends and family have used me as walking, talking spellcheck.

I only function as that if I have a notebook and a pen with me.

Boy, does the thread title fit that picture.
No thunderstorm up here, just a lot of blowing wind and overcast skies.

Not me. All I remember is that it was a homophone and I didn't ask for a definition. Doh!

Ouch. Is it wrong that I want to know the details about the scenic mechanism?
