I really enjoy this forum and do not believe how thoughts are worded, spelled etc. has a thing to do with how smart you are. I was a straight A english student and would use double negatives in daily life.
To waste time on such an issue is a shame. :stop: :x
Just be glad someone put this together for us to be able to come together and associate.

I know what you mean. It gets really hard to read after a while. Having to add in all the capitals where needed for the post to make sence.Muratic":3p27h4x6 said:bigbull338":3p27h4x6 said:well yall will see alot of typos with my typing ive forgotten how to spell an it really dont bother me i got my degree from hard knock U ill be in the cattle business till i die scott
A period and a comma would be nice now and then too. Maybe even a capital letter or two in the correct place.

When we go to the cattle auction we hear words like the calf has already been "steered" out. Every area in the country has versions of words or adjectives that are not used in other parts of the country. I haven't read a post here that I couldnt figure out what the writer was talking about. I didn't always hold their point of view, but I knew what they were saying. I am certainly not saying that it isnt commendable to use proper English, just saying that we all use words that may not be familiar in another area but we seem to get our point across and that is the intention. Also, not everyone has had the same amount of education as to the usage of the typewriter keyboard. The computer is difficult to get used to for most of us but the greatest thing about it for me is the backspace button because I sure use it alot to correct my misspellling.
For me it is better to keep my mouth shut and have people think me ignorant, than to open it and remove all doubt. lol
I feel bad I understood everything you wrote. LOLcowgirl580":fve9xi5r said:i thought this fit in rather well with this topic. yes, this is the way its supposed to look.

Don't you know that most cattlemen only have what is percieved to be a 6th grade education anyway? :lol: They didn't have the educational opportunities that some of us were lucky enough to get. They had to work to help the family. Water had to be fetched, wood had to be cut, cows had to be milked, etc, etc, etc. These folks do more work before 8:00 AM than most of us do all day. They are the backbone of this country and should be respected as such.:cboy:
