The following sentence:

So much for my "are complete WORDS to much to ask for?" speech.

Should read "are complete WORDS _too_ much...?" Obviously, if I can't spell
TOO right. 

For the sake of clarity, I would like to change that sentence to read:

"R complete WORDS 2 much 2 ask 4."

Thank you and over and out!

Katie
