Aaaaand.... I think Ms. Teacher has her answer.
Again, LOVE your word verifications:
"shtlst"
(HOW does it know it's me?)
At least it was "shtstain"...
That would be "wasN'T 'shtstain'"
And, to think I proofread as part of my livelihood. (eye roll)
Sir, did you misspell gauge?
That's hilarious (the joke). Reminds me of the time I was in college and the professor was asking us for examples of sports people play while doing business.
The tall African American gentleman in the class says, "Basketball."
We were thinking tennis, handball and golf but....
Gauge is probably more commonly used, but gage is a variation:
gage 3 (gaj)
n. & v.
Variant of gauge.
