I used to teach business writing classes for a national seminar company.  High level executives and their secretaries got a good laugh when I’d put this little ditty up on the screen at the front of the room.  I’d ask them to read it aloud in unison.

Owed To A Spell Checker

I have a spelling checker
It came with my PC

It plane lee marks four my revue
Miss steaks eye can knot sea.

Eye ran this poem threw it.
You sure reel glad two no

Its vary polished in it’s weigh,
My checker tolled me sew.

A checker is a bless sing.
It freeze yew lodes of thymes.

It helps me right awl stiles two reeds,
And aides me when aye rime.

To rite with care is quite a feet
Of witch won should be proud.

And wee mussed dew the best wee can,
Sew flaws are knot aloud.

And now bee cause my spelling
Is checked with such grate flare,

Their are know faults with in my cite.
Of none eye am a wear.

Each frays come posed up on my screen
Eye trussed to be a joule.

The checker poured oar every word
To cheque sum spelling rule.

That’s why aye brake in two averse
By righting wants two pleas.

Sow now ewe sea why aye dew prays
Such soft wear for pea seas!
