Default OT - Plasma TV question

By the way, thank you for spelling "piqued" correctly. Such a rare
occurrence, here on Usenet and elsewhere.


He probably piqued at a dictionary before he posted.


Ha ! Not.

Until recently, I even had my chell-specker disabled, as I considered it to
be a dishonorable literary crutch. By God, I didn't waste all that time
getting an English degree only to have some damned computer CHECK my
spelling!

Well, then my near-vision started to deteriorate, and I've been having some
problems proof-reading. "o"s now look an awful lot like "a"s to these
47-year-old, non-reading-glass-assisted eyes, and I had to turn the stupid
thing back on, just to catch my typos.

But, despite my advancing years, I picked "piqued" on purpose, sans
assistance, thank you very much...
