Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at an Elingsh uinervtisy, it deosn't
mttaer in what oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny ipmroetnt
tihng is taht frist and lsat ltteer is at the rghit pclae. The rset can
be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm.
Tihs is bcuseae we do not raed ervey lteter by itslef but

Yes, it's me, well, my ghost anyway. I'd spell it "re-sent" to clear up any misunderstandings, but from the context, it's clear what you meant...

I'm just as pedantic dead as alive....

ghost of bit... I have a question for you:

I learned that the correct way of saying "thanks god" is "thank god" I always said it wrong.

why can't I say "thanks god"?
I say "thanks -insert name here-" why can't I say "thanks god"?

yah...stupid question, just always wondered about it.

When you tell someone "thanks" it's more like you are contracting the phrase "I give thanks to you", similar to the way that "goodbye" is a contraction of "God be with ye". But when you say "thank God!", you're either using the imperative or the first person singular (like "I thank God!").

Anyway, that's the only explanation I can think of...

Lemme Re-Phrase That...
Ahem! In leuof the Self Esteem thread I'd like to change my original post to...

What's shakin', Kevin Bacon?

I just don't want you to feel like you're a round-faced loser, and I believe Kevin Bacon is more of a winner, imo.

Maybe he's got progeria. That would explain his lousy outlook on life.
