Misspelt













I was just minding my own business, but this kooky guy from Aberdeen comes up and wants to know how to spell anything. Being the super terrific speller that I am, I start thinking of the hardest words for other people, the ones that I have no problem with of course, like occurrence and conscientious and you're. Given the invitation to spell anything at that exact moment for this stranger who, god only knows why, is happy to be the audience to my spelling prowess, which word should I choose? But after I'd worked myself up into a cognitive frenzy, it was not to be. He really wanted to know how to spell anything. As in, "Could you give me some money please, anything helps."
