Hi?   PC?

Ode to the Spell Checker

Eye halve a spelling checker
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write,
It shows me strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid,
it nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
its rare lea ever wrong.
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
its letter; perfect awl the weigh
my checker tolled me sew.

Bye.

"Hi All

George wrote

An Ontario friend of mine notes
that it
is possible in that province to find a P.C.
(Progressive Conservative)
who
is quite p.c. (politically correct). He assures me
that such a person
is
also almost certain to own a p.c. (personal computer.)

Is it also possible for this person to be a retired PC
(Police Constable) from England? :)"

Nonsense, Gary! Everyone knows he would have been a retired PC (police
constable) from West Wales where he would have spent his life as a
faithful
supporter of PC (Plaid Cymru, the Party for Wales).

Poppy cock! :)
