I am shocked any of you use Google for anything. They are as anti gun as e-bay. Everytime you click anything of theirs the sponcers pay more and they get bigger.

I use AOL, so if Im typing something long on a forum or something i'll cut and paste everything into my AOL "write mail" and spell check everything, then cut and paste it back. Its a kinda retarded way of doing things but thats how I taught myself..

I think everyone has their own particualr way of working on the comp. I do use google to define words sometimes.

Ditto. I use google all the time for spell check. For those that haven't downloaded Mozilla Firefox3, the Google Toolbar works great too. If you can't find the spelling you might not want to use that word because people just might not understand!

I buy gun related items on eBay quite often and pay for them with Paypal...

After reading your post, you might want to try the Google..........

Not me. I use Firefox for spell checking.

Due to my job, I always need to have a Google page up to be able to reference work and searches. As such, it makes an excellent, easy to use spell check as well. Or, stick a word and 'dictionary' in the search to find a quick definition of words I'm not certain of.
