In fact I believe it was Mark Twain who said he didn't have any use for a 
person who could only spell a word one way.

When I first saw Andrew's post my first thought was that President Clinton got 
Laid and later Lied about it. Good way to remember the difference.

Kaleb, it's not LAYing around, it's LYing around.  And when you
recline, you LIE down, not LAY down, as all the yoga and pilates
instructors say.

Sorry for being such a twit but this is one of my pet peeves...  Only
5 percent of the populace knows the difference beween "lay" and "lie".
 I guesss you have to be a baby boomer...
