Today I learned that: I didn't know how to spell psychedelic

I've signed up for the AARP Spelling Bee that is being held in Cheyenne on August 11. <P>

That gives me about 90 days to learn thousands of obscure and never-used-except in spelling bee words.<P>

Today I learned that I'd better brush up on normal words too. I took a test of "frequently" mispelled words and discovered that I was unsure of the spellings of which words that end in -ible and which in -able (For example permissible. I learned a tip - if the word ends in two s's, it takes -ible  rather than -able.

And I was sure that "psychedelic" was spelled psychadelic - but no, not so.

So it's a good thing I started my serious training today!
