Hi, All ~

While looking for a different email saved from my home email AA group, I came across:

Mike T. replied:

Everyone knows I'm a stickler for good spelling. So, when an associate
e-mailed technical documents asking me to "decifer" them, I had to set
him straight.

I wrote, "Decipher is spelled with a ph, not an f. In case you've
forgotten, spell checker comes free with your software."

A minute later, I got this reply, "Mine must be dephective."




Have a great sober day, All!
