    Posted: 19 August 2004 at 4:53pm

I'm attaching a link to Webster's Online dictionary.  Also in Mirosoft Word under tools you should be able to highlight Language and then see the Thesaurus.  The thesaurus is helpful in finding alternative words that mean the same (synonyms). Also, some words can have slightly different meanings depending if it is used as a noun or a verb.  This is just something helpful just like having spell check.  My intensions for this posting is to inform and to assist in not offending or taking offense to words that maybe used that we don't fully understand or know it's range of meaning.  Example:  The word Educated does not necessarily mean one is referring to college or being college educated.

Sincerely,

Marc got in trou-ble, Marc got in trou-ble.......

Chuck, I guess your right........I am misunderstood..............and there is no need for a jury once you are already hanging.  Just something I thought would help..........and even that was misunderstood!

You may as well put your other comment back up that you deleted yesterday and then replaced it with that expression.  So you will know, I was an education major.  Secondly, I sale turbo's on the side as a hobby.  My main occupation is recruiting engineers.  I'm sorry that you feel that way about yourself.  It's never too late to educate yourself because I learn something new everyday.  If you continue this line of postings the more everyone will see where the problem really lies.  Take care.
