Bill “Papa” Lee Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) My posting at the thing of bad legend when it comes to spelling, grammar and punctuation. Doing it on an IPAD from bed makes it worse. Lying on one's back and typing with one finger makes it worse. Should I continue to make it worse? I go back and read some of the things I write and have edit it constantly. Bi-focals do not help when holding the IPAD in one hand a typing with the other. Or…was it this bad before? This is where you should lie to make me feel better. Do IPAD’s have spell check?

Libs Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 I don't think I've seen you posting much, Papa, but you're doing fine!! Just do whatever you feel like doing and don't worry too much about your spelling. You are definitely operating at a handicap (and I know nothing of IPads, but I've heard it's a little more difficult to post with them). Your input is always welcome! 1
katherine the great Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 I'm hardly on the board anymore at all Pa Pa, but you MUST not stop posting because of this. The board would just not be right without Pa Pa!
sjdawg Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 I vote keep posting. Content and sentiment is more important than grammar. 3

I won't lie to you. You are bad at spelling but so am I. My browsers spell check saves me a lot of times. Its not your spelling that is valued. It is your ideas that contribute. Keep it up.

Tacenda Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) I'm wordy with not much substance sometimes, atleast you've got the substance down, and really I hadn't noticed any problems with your grammer or spelling! Edited July 9, 2012 by Tacenda
Bill “Papa” Lee Posted July 9, 2012 Author Posted July 9, 2012 "He must have little genius who can't spell a word inmore than one way" - Mark TwainNow that is funny...one thing I miss with the IPad is not having the emotion bar showing up. Lol
The Nehor Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 "He must have little genius who can't spell a word inmore than one way" - Mark TwainThere are at least three variant spellings of Shakespeare and Shakespeare used all of them himself when referring to himself and signing documents.

I hate ipads, don't worry about it, people know about your situation.My husband quotes the Mark Twain comment all the time....
thesometimesaint Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 Pa Pa:We all make mistakes in writing. That's why they have editors for books.You're doing fine considering the circumstances.

CASteinman Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Pa Pa,I like your posts and have not noticed any problems.
