I saw the word "Acorn" a day or two ago and thought "That's not spelled right; it's A-K-E-R-N"
anyone else having that trouble? I mean, when you're in the music store and see "Celtic Music" do you think they spelled it wrong because of me?

In the South, it's pronounced 'akern', so that spelling seems OK to me.

Well...it is the Book of Kells after all.

Actually, yes! I was in Barnes and Noble and saw a book about Keltic (heehee) music and thought about mailing it to you.
I bought some dollar store trash bags that were "Fresh AIRE scented". I guess they're higher quality due to the extra "e". 
Thegman is another that comes up often for some odd reason.
