you are silly, Tom!! I was thinking of saying :Balls are amazing! Hey, do you know how to say supercalifragilisticexpialidocious backwards? I always tell my students I can say it backwards. I turn around with my back to them and just say the word. haha!!

Yes, you've spelled it correctly. ('Spelt' is a grain, by the way, like oats, rye, wheat, and bran. Don't tell me that you're an Englishman or something! Gasp! LOL...) ~ Gershon
