This is a little hard to explain, but funnier than all-get out to me (tells you something about me).
A number of my special blog-posting words and word-combinations (some of which I’ve made-up entirely out of thin air and some of which are real) keep confusing my program’s spell check, so when I write blog entries, I’m constantly having to convince spell-check that yes, I meant that.
For instance, whenever I type the word “banana” (as in, say, “banana republic”), and I use the BOLD tag (<b>) around the word, my spell-check asks if I didn’t mean to type “Canada”.
Nope! I meant banana!
My spell-check just shakes its virtual head.
