I read so much and pick up a lot of new words that I never actually hear spoken. So, my problem isn't in being able to use a big word correctly, so much as risking sounding like an idiot when I say said word. :)Richelle Meadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08987219680631887364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9155447609334136808.post-14115944890997811192007-02-10T13:24:00.000-05:002007-02-10T13:24:00.000-05:00Pat,I couldn't help but post it!

I had an uncle that was bragging about his daughter being an RN and he kept going around saying she was a "Restricted Nurse" when I think he meant "Registered Nurse." Then there is my all time pet peeve, people who say "ideal" when they mean "idea," as in "I have an ideal..." huh?
