Not trying to be mean or anything but, it is spelled Squier not Squire. I wish i had a dollar for every single time I've seen it spelled wrong! Carry on!

Right. I'm a "Squier" misspeller, but I am recovering. I realised I had a severe problem and got help from dictionary-dot-com. :lol:

Yeah... and definitely is spelled definitely... not definately or defiantly. This word is misspelled much more often than Squire... er, I mean, Squier. :wink:

Sorry, I'm an English major!

First time ever I heard of startocaster. I believe there is a Starcaster, perhaps? I remember this kind of reaction years ago, I was working in a studio doing televison production. One of the biggest commentors for no apparent reason had remarks. He also stepped in the back of an area he had no reason being at, two minutes before air time. When it was "on" live there was zero audio. While everyone panicked (it was great seeing all the morons who had remarks not have a clue to solving problem), in my mind I knew to run to area where the big cheese had thread on with zero business. I noticed wires that had been kicked out of place (some engineer had been working there earlier and had to "jimmie rig" this setup for tempory technical reasons}. I automatically connected the kicked out wires and, we had sound again. We probably lost around 27 seconds of sound at the start of the program. In everything I perform in the world, I try very hard to stay humble, practical and real. Spelling mistakes in legal documents can be pretty devestating at times, rendering a document invalid. We all make mistakes. I feel the majorty of know it alls are insecure wannabes. Enjoy life and treat others with respect and dignity. When mistaken, stand corrected and learn from the experience.

You are right, it's often spelled wrong.

I can't ever seem to use "than" or "then" properly either so I guess we pull the meaning out of context to know what's going on 8)

...you used "either" out of context. The word should be "neither" following the neither/nor, either/or doctrine of grammar. However, what's interesting about the sentence is; you can use or instead of nor along with neither -- or/neither instead of neither/nor, either/or.
