Occasionally, we refer to the perfect Mustang as concours or concourse. After a tad bit of research, I find that the "E" is not necessary. The real name for these prestine Mustangs is Concours d' elegance.

i guess thats good to know. what posessed you to look that up?

 

Oh, just many years of guys posting that their car is concourse correct I guess. It's the same with loose and lose. I have noticed that most on here use loose, when they actuallly mean lose. Loose means it ain't tight, and lose means you can't find it.

 

and also breaks instead of brakes, and duel rather than dual.. among others.. If I am unsure of the spelling, I use google or dictionary.com to find out the correct spelling. it only takes a few seconds and I can then only look like a doofus from the drivel and inaccuracies I sometimes post.. lol.

 

just like tIre and tYre....same word, same meaning, different spelling


oh, and potatoe is a correct, older spelling

 

well tyres would be speaking the king/queens english.. you know british and all that. Such as a trunk is a boot, and a hood is a bonnet... a wrench is a spanner.. and i like them french fried potaters [/carl]

 

Seems like I remember a vice president who made that bad choice of spellling of potato.

 

yeah, but technically he was correct...

 

In a spelling bee no less... I remember that too Glen...

 

You guys have a good night. I am going to bed.
