Spelling Correctly – Does It Matter Any More?

When I was growing up, it was imperative that every word was spelled correctly in any paper or letter you wrote.  I didn’t have ‘spell check’ on my typewriter, I used the dictionary.

Things are different now.  Kids don’t use a dictionary, they rely on their electrical devices to correct their spelling mistakes.  Or in some cases, they spell words in new and creative ways.

Recently a twitter exchange between a Frederick County Public School student and a school employee went viral – over a misspelled word.

So I did some research, and found some of the ‘best’ misspelled words on social media. They are actually very funny, so maybe I should be thanking them for a good laugh!  Or maybe thanking them for ‘righting’ so well!

Iford Tower instead of Eiffel Tower.

Running arrons instead of running errands.

Raw man noodles instead of Ramen Noodles.

Seizure salad instead of Caesar Salad.

Human bean instead of human being.

How Are Your New Years Resolutions Going?

At the beginning of the New Year, many of us made resolutions that we intended to keep for all of 2017!

Resolutions of getting in shape, earning more money, spending more time with family, getting more sleep, and to stop procrastinating.

Have you been able to keep yours?  If not – today is a pinnacle for anyone tettering on their resolution.  It’s National ‘Ditch New Years Resolutions Day’!

If you have been able to keep your pledges for better health and wealth in the new year, good job! If not, today you can give up on your resolution guilt free and join others doing the same!

Here is what we talked about on the air.

Little Big Town Baby

LEE BRICE: Put His Priorities in Order

There\’s a mini population explosion going on in Nashville. Kimberly Schlapman just adopted a baby girl, Shay Mooney of Dan and Shay and his fiancee are expecting, Stephen Barker Lyles of Love and Theft are having a baby girl, Ashley Monroe announced her pregnancy on Christmas day and Lee Brice and his wife are expecting baby number three this summer.

Lee says when he started having kids he had to learn to prioritize the things in his life, so he doesn\’t miss important moments.

\”I have to say no sometimes to some things I might need to do for my career. I\’ve got to say no, that\’s not as important as going trick-or-treating. Hopefully I\’m just getting better at that. What\’s priorities. Figuring out what priorities are…\”

Good News 1/13/17 – School Bus Driver

Here is the full story for today’s Good News!

Thanks to a school bus driver in Floyd, Virginia, some kids now have something extra to keep them warm while they’re outside in cold weather.

Sue Gladding bought 50 pairs of gloves and 40 hats – and handed them out to the kids on their way home from school.

The gift surprised the parents, but Sue says she had to do it.

She didn’t like seeing the children shivering in the morning and said it was worth it because she loves them all. (WDBJ-TV)
