Oops! The White House has been caught. . . no, not Benghazi™, but in a Major Spelling Error. See more below A Word From Our Sponsor--and the orange eraser marks, for an explanation.
Tuesday! A day to brush up on English.
As you can see by Itzl's concerned look, this group gives Kossacks a safe place to check in, a daily diary where we can let people know we are alive, doing OK, and not affected by such things as heat, blizzards, floods, wild fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, earthquakes, or other such things that could keep us off DKos. It also allows us to find other Kossacks nearby for in-person checks when other methods of communication fail - a buddy system. If you're not here, or anywhere else on DKos, and there are adverse conditions in your area (floods, heatwaves, hurricanes, earthquakes etc.), we and your buddy are going to check up on you. If you are going to be away from your computer for a day or a week, let us know here. We care!
IAN is a great group to join, and a good place to learn to write diaries. Drop one of us a Kosmail and ask to be added to the Itzl Alert Network anytime! We all share the publishing duties, and we welcome everyone who reads IAN to write diaries for the group! Every member is an editor, so anyone can take a turn when they have something to say, photos and music to share, a cause to promote or news!
We do have a diary schedule. But, when you are ready to write that diary, either post in thread or send FloridaSNMOM a Kosmail with the date. If you need someone to fill in, ditto. FloridaSNMOM is here on and off through the day usually from around 9:30 or 10 am eastern to around 11 pm eastern.

Yes, the White House was recently tripped up by an Old Enemy in the English Language, the name of our current month. Feburary er Febaury er Feberary er, oh the hell with it.
Actually, maybe this should make the rest of us who, at one time or another--maybe every year!--have struggled with the spelling of the second month of the year feel better.
Of course, pronouncing the name of the second month is also a problem, maybe even a more common one. The President even parodied this in a recent video.
Um, what is the correct pronunciation? The Internet to the rescue.
And what other English words are Big Problems? 50 to watch out for.
OK, enough of that. What's up with you the last few days of, um, this month?
