Default RE: Blue angles in red planes?

I don't trust Spell-Checkers, especially after an experience I had in a letter to a friend telling him about a fire in my Flight-Box. Seems I absent mindedly dropped some loose nicads in my flight-box drawers. I wrote him about the incident and just hit "Spell Check" when finished, then without reading it over, sent the letter off.

My friend wrote back saying he would never again ask to borow any of my "wipe rags" after finding out what their original use was. Having no idea what he was referring to, I wrote back asking for clarification. He answered with, "Check your letter to me."

As he suggested I reread my letter to him and found that the damned Spell Checker had substituted the word Underwear for the word Drawers!"

Since that letter, I have gone to using nothing but Bounty Paper Towels for wipes!
Can't afford to keep buying all those Hanes briefs from Wally World anyway.

P.S. Note that I kept this RC related by using the words Flight-Box and Nicads...just
hope the Spell Checker knows what they are!
