I hate not having a spellcheck. I always feel a bit self conscious for my spelling.

Thanks, some forums have spell check on them. Is there any chance this one will have it eventually?

If you really want to improve your spelling, stay away from spell checkers...When people grow dependent on things like that, they never learn anything...Just like people who constantly use calculators never learn math (my sister)...Then when you have no calculator, you're screwed


When Usher made his post, he wrote the word 'write' correctly...Then you came in just after him and still spelled it 'wright'...If you were REALLY concerned about your spelling, you would have payed attention to the way HE spelled it, and then corrected it

If you're not sure how to spell a word, you can go to google.com...Type in the word...If it's spelled incorrectly, it will give you the correct spelling

It's never too late to learn something, and teaching yourself isn't that difficult...It's much better than being dependent on help-aids for the rest of your life


And to answer your question...No...We will not have a spell check

In the darkness, the two teenagers, Nadia and Tristan, gripped each other in terror. They stood frozen as they watched the woman start to change. The woman's body shuddered as dark, thick hairs started growing out of her skin, her nails turning to claws, her nose and jaw lengthening into a muzzle--she was becoming a wolf!

The clouds in the sky parted revealing a bright full moon, illuminating the wolf now as it rose and howled deeply. Nadia finally broke from her frozen state and screamed.

[Bleeding Angel-

It's never too late to learn how to write well. Unlike some of the other things we learned in school growing up, you will use your writing skills all your life.

Here is a link to the Merriam-Webster's Dictionary: http://www.m-w.com. I use this website all the time to check words when I am uncertain of their spelling. It's really a great resource because they have a Thesaurus too.

Here's another really great website on sentence structure and punctuation: http://www.edufind.com/english/grammar/index.cfm.

Hope this helps!]

The creature continued to change. It looked like bones were spltting from under her arms and skin was growing over, then hair, then hands formed with fingers. Two spikes came from just behind it's shoulders and suddenly, a thin layer of skin flapped down supported by strips of cartiledge. Wings. The creature's hideous face turned to look at the teenagers. Nadia broke into a run. The creature of the night flashed towards her.

Amen, sister and God bless ya!!!!!

It seems people become lazier every day. Spell-check is a handy tool, but dependence upon it weakens the mind.

Film fans are typically pretty bright folk. If this thread is any barometer of the level of education out there, I weep for the future.

The creature sprung up into the air, flying towards Nadia with the speed of a hawk.

Tristan blinked himself awake and started towards Nadia, "Wait!", but before he could get to her, the creature collided with Nadia, it's claws wrapping around her and lifting her into the air as she screamed.

"No!", Tristan cried, his arms reaching towards the sky. "No", he whispered, his eyes becoming watery.

Tristan's ears perked as he heard behind him the sound of a shotgun being reloaded.

"Get down!" came a voice from behind him, an ursine growl of a voice that he wasn't altogether sure came from a person. Man, beast, whoever said it...he knew he had to duck or get shot, and that was enough for him. The second shot rang out, and it seemed like the creature almost flew back to meet it. It took the shot in its wing as if it were nothing, as if it were just informing the shooter that his gun was no good. The creature smiled at Tristan, a smile that made his stomach drop to his knees.

It held nadia high, it's wings still beating. Another shot rang out this time but the creature had already planned this. With twice the speed of the pellets, it lowered Nadia infront of itself. Tristan's life stood still as an explosion of blood covered the night sky. He heard a deafening screech then the beating of wings growing fainter and fainter. The man cursed under his breath. He held out a scared and burn hand, missing one finger. "Hey, my name is Bark." he said with a gruff english accent. Tristan looked up at his face and gasped...

Bark's burn scars did not stop at his hand, but covered the right side of face, his right eye was covered by an eyepatch. He looked to be middle-aged, but he was fit and sinewy and not "old" by any means. Bark smiled slightly at Tristan with the snub of a cigar clenched between his teeth.

Tristan shook the man's hand, "Tristan...what just happened to my girlfriend...and what was that thing?", he said hesitantly.

Bark's smile faded somewhat as he took his cigar out of his mouth to answer. Before he could speak, a red-headed woman came out of the shadows with a crossbow in one hand. "Get ready for a big shock, honey", she said to Tristan as she laid her free hand affectionately on Bark's shoulder.
