Does anyone else have a morbid fear of the hieroglyphic (I did not use the dictionary!) word verification system on some bloggers comment columns. I mean pxllgt, I have never seen a proper word yet. I look at it long and hard before I type it. What if I get it wrong. Is it an intelligence test and will the award 'dunce of the year' start flashing. Is it some secret blogger code and everyone is laughing at me when I use it?
Maybe I'm paranoid, even an easy word like metempsychosis makes me imagine souls passing in the night.

Welcome Ben - how I wish I didn't have the urge to fill those silences.
