PS- "Word Verification" indeed....how about ACTUAL words...it's not like you would ever run out....or how about spellcheck, you oxymoron!


[Editor's Note: After reading this letter I had to inform my mom, the author of this letter, that she has had Word Verification turned on in her blog settings all this time.]

I sometimes feel like keeping a list of the ridiculous words that pop up for word verification.

Ha! I just left a comment on your mom's blog...:) Thanks to the two of you, my annoying verification thing is off; I had no idea I had that option.

Always thought of verification as additional typing practice (WPM is now 15.3), but now I misspell more wurdz.

I just ranted on this. I had to share your blog post with all of my readers. Great humor. I want to SHAKE CAPTCHAs sometimes. Especially after filling out the 30th wavery thing.

Oh, LOOK you have word verification on.
