Highly recommend d/l'ing and using.. and once you learn about tabbed browsing.. well, surfing porn will never quite be the same. I think my favorite part of the 'afaid' sign is the fact that she got the word 'represent' right, and then even got the correct grammatical use of the word 'too'.. but blows the 5th grade word 'afaid..' unless this is some new sorta "spell woman with a y" thing I'm unaware of. Maybe it has something to do with pirates. "I spell afraid without a Rrrrrrrrrrr...." It doesn't make sense to you either? Weird.

Not only is it blocked by the girl in front, but it also represents a poor example of penmanship. Damn, but those people look enthusiastic. I can tell they're really behind the cause. Maybe they need a hand drummer. I want to kick the "Everyone deserves to be safe" guy in the shins. If all you care about is being safe, then let's just let the robots take over. Me, I'll stick with the monkeys. Re: the picture Clint linked:

Click the links in steps 1 and 2 and say yes, and then restart the browser. Then to do the check, right click on the input box and click on check spelling. P.S. I love the tabs!!

It's worth checking out if only for tabs and the Adblock plugin.
