The Jectists went crawk when they saw the slylow. It is considered unfoom tusign a recatist that way!
I used to hate doing word verifications on blogs where I comment. I know how miserable it is to be comment spammed all the time, but I never could read or duplicate those complicated constructions of incongruent consonants. Now many of them are almostwords and they are so much easier. I saved up up a few this week to tell you a story using them...and what fun I had! (But watch out for those unfoom recatists. They are rough on rats, I'll tell you!)
(Of course the red bolds are word verification "words")

I used to hate the word verification process too (I think that's why I went with Wordpress) but at least now Blogger is throwing in a few vowels to make a "sort of word". I did a slumbum and sockam yesterday.
ReplyDeleteWow your home is gorgeous. Such grand old character.
ReplyDeleteI still hate them! Another reminder of all the nastiness of the world. Is that your house on top? Lovely!
ReplyDeleteGreat shot of your house!
ReplyDeleteAnd do me a favor? Keep the recatists on your side of the river. :)
Linda, I have had so much fun with it, since they have been using word-like puzzles. Some of them are so funny. I love slumbum!
ReplyDeleteWR, thanks, it needs some paint but we love it.
Jinglebob, it is indeed our house. Photo by our younger daughter Becky. She is using it for the header on her blog, Books, and I liked it so well I asked her to share.
Akagaga, thanks! Photo credit goes to Becky. I am worried about those darned recatists. They are so darned umfoom and slylow!
I wonder if any of these would work with online Scrabble.
ReplyDeleteLove the country mansion!!!
I think people really hate them....I finally deleted them from my comment page....
ReplyDeleteYour new header is great - what a magnicient house! I can just imagine the history that goes with it......has it been in the family for quite some time?
I vote they get rid of word verification and add spell check on the comment page for people like me who cannot get it right!
ReplyDeleteI meant to write "magnificient house" :(
lol - i've been thinking of doing the same kind of post. great minds? i like these almost words WAY better than those weird ones where it took me several tries 'cause the 'l' was really an 'i.'
ReplyDeletebtw - your house is gorgeous!
The house is beautiful. Do you use all of it? Is it all heated? I used to live in a big farm house and it never seemed to get warm. When I was little my Mom would warm my blanket to wrap me in when I went to bed so I could stay warm.
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking along the same lines lately. They're easier to type AND funnier.
ReplyDeleteI love the house pic as well!
Is that a picture of your home? What a grand place to live.
ReplyDeleteLove the new header - what a glorious house.
ReplyDeleteOn a cooking blog today I got a oven for a word verification! I couldn't believe it was actually a word.
Jan, they seem like Scrabble words don't they? lol and thanks...
ReplyDeleteDeb, I turned them off at Jinglebob's request as I enjoy reading his (and everybody's) comments. I have had some spam, but not too bad so far. And I didn't even notice the spelling. lol
And thanks for the kind words on the house. The boss's parents lived next door years ago and bought this farm when it came up for sale. the house was sort of a bonus. I love living here....it has a lot of personality!
Erika, I wondered if anyone else noticed it...I am still saving them, because they are simply irresistible. some of them are so funny. thank for you kind words about the house.
Anon, we don't use a couple of the upstairs bedrooms and we just dry laundry and store stuff in the big parlor. It doesn't really have a lot of rooms, as the rooms are huge! We heat about half the downstairs and there is minimal (but much welcomed) heat in the bedrooms. We make hot water bottles out of soda bottles and use them...a real necessity in rooms where the water would probably freeze some nights. I like the blanket idea...that is really sweet!
Rurality, they are pretty cool. Thanks!
Islagringo, it is indeed the house. thanks...it is an adventure living here. I don't know how else to describe it. The only house that I ever lived in that is grateful when you clean it and shows its gratitude.
Nita, thanks, Oven on a cooking blog...it can't be an accident. lol
Next, a picture of the house in summer, and a sequel, a picture from those mamoth living room windows, showing the whole valley below. Who could not love that glorious old house! Now, the driveway is another matter!
