Well my nephew who is like a son to me, just turned 21 today, is going into the army and was sworn in today.
He was so warred about the entry test but scored a 91 and was able to choose the carrier path he wanted, military intelligence.
I’m so proud of him.

And today Michael army military Intelligence.
Yes we are truly blest with some outstanding young men and woman in our family.

oh yeah lol. i hardly followed it with cousin spelled cozen. lol. i know there was something about a spell check that could be downloaded on here to help it pick stuff out a while back, maybe pappy has some info on it still. I am not sure on this but firefox may also spell check. the ones at school do anyway, it may just be an add on for it though. steve

Trust me, you dont want me getting involved in anything technical about computers:p

I admit, "cozen" stumped me for a second but I got it:p

I read so much I just blow through most mistakes. I try and get people to email me instead of calling on the phone due to my bad hearing, I can deal with mispelled words better then I can missing half the conversation:blah:
