I can't spell

It is a little known fact that I have the spelling ability of an inner city youth who had my mom as a teacher. My mom was an inner city school teacher (7th grade Bio). Most people say who cares, that's what spell check is for. Yet somehow my misspellings always get passed the blogger master computer. That is why I need E.T. as a friend. Huh! Well I really want a Speak & Spell which then took my mind on a tangent that made me think of having a pet alien I could drink beer with. I guess I could have said I need Drew Barrymore circa '82 as well. Tangent, tangent, tangent, cosine.
