Re: [IRCA] Champing at the bit

OK - thanks for the correction. Point well taken. I guess since so few of us
spend time around horses like our ancestors did, we should be more careful
about using their expressions (ancestors OR horses). Kind of like people who
either "chuck" or "chunk" things out the window! Ain't English a wonderful
language? 73s,

I misspelled Colombia a while ago as Columbia and was taken to task so here 
is my correction of a misused phrase: Champing at the bit, not chomping at 
the bit, although this error seems to be used very widely and is getting 
more and more common. Just had to show that I'm not semiliterate I guess,
