I re-arranged my designs, so I rebuilt my Store page as well. It’s more coherent and each link only opens one store instead of 8 or more as before. Faster.

I don’t know why kids (and they are invariably 12-15) want to butcher the language to the point of incomprehensibility. I know when I was in school, we would use single letters or numerals in place of words, and so on. But it’s gotten so far out of hand now I can’t even begin to decipher some of the crap showing up on Livejournal.
Here’s a partial list:
- Dun – It’s a real word, meaning a brownish-yellow color. It doesn’t mean “do not.”
- Yew – Another real word, it’s the name of a tree, not the second-person singular. And, it’s not even shorter than the word that should be used!
- Wit – Humor, not conjoined.
- Misplaced Zs – Alwayz, azz, etc. No comment needed.
- Wuz – It’s not any shorter than the real word, so why use it?
- Ur – An ancient Mesopotamian civilization, not a second-person possesive.
I’m only hitting a few of the highlights, obviously. What is really interesting to me is that, because I learned to type at the age of 10, my handwriting sucks ass. But, when I type I am anal about going back and fixing errors. The more you type, the faster you type, and so the less useful those absurd abbreviations become.
But, I’m old so what do I know?

A day after Democrats suffered resounding congressional losses, one exasperated Democratic political consultant said he was going to put his displeasure into literary form. “I’m ready to write a book,” said Democratic strategist Peter Fenn, whose proposed title would be: “Why Democrats Have No Balls.”
