Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King, and my God.

I love the English
A little while ago, I was assured on Facebook that "access" is so a verb. At least, it's a verb now. The writer, you see, had used it as a verb. He insisted that he "could access the internet," which meant definitively that it is now a verb. So there.
But in spite of my lethal hatred of verbing, I have to admit that I am still a terrible speller. I know there are at least three ells in that word that means two long things going in the same direction, but I've never really got the hang of the distribution.
