Incomplete Idiot

"I've heard someone say that our problems aren't the problem; it's our solutions that are the problem. That tends to be one thing that goes wrong for me — my solutions." - Anne Lamott

Location: Georgia, United States

I am currently the Logistics Coordinator for MCYM/Club Beyond Europe (my missions agency is Young Life, just to be confusing). :0) I have traveled to many parts of this world, but I'm not as well-traveled as I would like to be some day. I have had more jobs than I can count, and my list of interests grows everyday. I take seriously Paul's urging to be "all things to all people". Mostly, I am interested in being a friend to all the folks I have been blessed to meet, because I am discovering (slowly) that it is not all about me.

Spell check anyone?

Does anyone else think it's funny that the word blog is not found in the dictionary used by the spell check program for a company called blogspot.com? The suggestions for replacing the word are: bloc, Bloch, blows, bloke, blocs, block, bolos, bloc's, blouse, and blocky. My favorites are blows (would that be used as a noun or a verb?) and bloc's (what, pray tell, is the apostrophe "s" for?). I do realize that blog is short for weblog, but I think blogspot.com should add the word to their dictionary in order to give some added credibility to the whole genre.

PS- The word weblog, when spell checked, came up with wobbles, and, I'm not kidding, efflux for spelling suggestions! On an old version of MS Word I once spell checked the word placemat, and it suggested placenta for a replacement!
