    Flout is openly disregard or ignore which is the idea he was Expressing.

    Let's stop the word, spelling and homonyms nazi bs. Its stupider, which is a real word by the way, than 9 versus 45.

    Just like irregardless is is real word. Flout and flaunt are real words with real meanings.

    Everyone gets their arses kicked by auto spell check especially if they have a new device that's learning their key stroke speed and peculiar finger motions.

    Gladly. I just found it the epitome of ironic that motorcarman tried to correct MMM and then spelled it wrong...and then proceeded to edit the post when called out. :)

    I like poking pedants in the eye with their own red pen. Guilty pleasure of mine.

    'Top of the hill, Kerr County!
    I think the last driving citation I got was in about 1981 by a Texas State Trooper for doing 72 in a 55 on Hwy 6 in Waco. jimmy carter had just changed all the speed limits to save gasoline (my facts may or may not be accurate!).
