Indeed. My problem was, being used to the joys of Firefox's auto-spell-checker, I wrote that message on a college computer which didn't have the facility. I reckon that would come well within the boundaries of what US Word would call 'ironic'.

In response to Monty's point, the Firefox spell-checker on Facebook recognises neither 'Firefox' nor 'Facebook' as words, never mind Prufrock. Go figure.

Firefox! Facebook! Well, the TW spellchecker does. Doesn't recognize TW mind. It's not too keen on recognise either.

Hmm I like this, respectful, articulate and not inflammatory.

A few footballers could take a lesson from how to tweet during a transfer (or any other time for that matter).

Plenty more fond farewells and warm welcomes for Marv though.

He appears to be eating the dog from Tin-Tin and wearing a baseball hat backwards .... whilst in a car.

Not sure he'll understand anything very much.
