Word Verification...



Do you ever wonder if any of those words that are used for word verification are real? Well on occasion I have looked them up in the dictionary or tried to get away with one as a word while playing scrabble only to find it didn't exist and I couldn't fool anyone else by using it. I find that they just do not exist...I cant remember in the last 2 1/2 years getting a REAL word!

Well, much to my delight, this morning when I was commenting at Bernie's House I actually had a word I knew! Yes, indeed!





It put a smile on my face and will be reminded, when I have to spell a word verification 3 times to post my comment, that once upon a time I got a REAL WORD!!!

Have a grand day!!!

And thanks be to God!!!

  1. Hey, you've been reading my mind! I think the words have got more feasible recently. I think we should make a collection :)

  3. PS, had forgotten you were a nurse. I also saw you play the harp. I dabble in the violin. We are next state neighbors. Are you familiar with VNA Nazareth Home Health? That is where I retired from just about 2 years ago. Our agency is in Southern Indiana.

  4. That was a cute word that you ended up with Cathy! Some word verifications DO come close to real words...there have even been a few that only had an extra letter.

  7. Often wonder just who makes up these verification words that are so annoying. the ones with letters and numbers that are blury and not straight are like reading an eye chart at the doctors office without my eye glasses on:)

  8. I keep on wondering why they call it a word verification since it isn't a word most of the time.

  10. Every once in a while, very infrequently, a real word DOES come up. Like you, I'm surprised!

  11. Cute post and so true ...why does it take three attempts to leave a comment with word verification and then the comment is moderated? So crazy..lol

  12. WOO HOO!!! I love all the fun word verification options...I've had several over the last year that are real words...it always astounds me.

  13. You got a real word? LOL! A first!!! I think the verification mumbo jumbo has been getting longer and longer. It used to be about 5 letters long, and now it is usually 8 or 9. Has anyone else noticed this? Nice that you have been able to turn an annoyance into a game. I still wish people would turn it off and switch over to "comment moderation" instead.

  14. Good day! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was
    wondering which blog platform are you using for this
    website? I'm getting tired of Wordpress because I've had
    issues with hackers and I'm looking at options for another platform. I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

  17. First off I would like to say fantastic blog! I had a quick
    question in which I'd like to ask if you don't mind.
    I was interested to know how you center yourself and clear your thoughts
    before writing. I have had a hard time clearing my thoughts in
    getting my ideas out there. I truly do take pleasure in writing however it just seems
    like the first 10 to 15 minutes tend to be wasted just
    trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or tips?
    Thanks!
