Ah, thanks. Now I have installed a British dictionary, and the spell-check works. I'll probably switch it off soon because it'll be annoying to get all that red stuff...

Well it pretty much just underlines mispelled words. I guess he would have to learn that words underlined in red were misspelled, but I think he could figure that out pretty quickly.

If you right-click on a misspelled word it will give you a couple of suggestions. Choose one. Tada!

It didn't do anything, so how could I have clicked on a misspelt word? Now, after installing a dictionary, I can see that "CliffLandin" and "Tada" are misspelt. I'll just call you "Celandines". Tara!

Post what you wish, but if say something dumb (again) I will point it out to you.

His view is that any chick that won't suck his Dixie isn't worth knowing.

Yep. The high pitch whine that comes from them seems to drown out their music. It's always interesting when entertainers voice their political views, and discover that it is not in line with the views of their fans. Suddenly fans are not buying CD's or tickets to their shows. So they continue their pout-fest of "not making making nice", by calling their fans red-necks & putting out a movie of their so sad plight. Somehow they have allowed their hatred for President Bush to interfere with their ability to make money, and they blame it on the government for limiting their freedom of speech??? I don't get it?? If a majority of the US felt the same way that they did, then their sales would have gone up, but instead it went the other direction. So, they went on tour outside of the US, and I know it will make you sad, but...they are breaking up. (good riddance)

Sounds like you were abused as a child, you can get help for that now-a-days.

That doesn't necessarily follow. If the main fanbase of the Dixie Chicks is not the majority of the US, their political views will alienate only that percentage of the US that do listen to their music. Since this seems to be mostly the redneck population, it is prefectly reasonable that sales would drop if their views are in opposition to their fans.
