No Doug I ment deaft. From one online dictionary:
1. deaft

1. Undeniably Good hand eye coordination.

2. Dexterity; proficiency with the use of ones hands / eyes.

2. Quick / skillful; adroit.

3. Skillfull in video-game situations, and or concerning real life situations that recuire quick thinking / coordination achieved that otherwise was not humanly plausible.

4. Swift; Smooth-like in performance.

5. And or in the state of having incredable accuracy.

6. #team-deaft on the Gamesurge Network on IRC

The hacker was so deaft it was difficult to make out whether he was hacking.
I was thinking about number 4. :D

I couldn't get Merriam-Webster to recognize "deaft". Evidently the proper spelling is "deft". :wink:

dictionary.com doesn't recognize "deaft" either. Bruce must have access to one of those new cutting-edge dictionaries... :lol:

:oops:

Well I checked again and guess what maybe it pays t look at the type of dictionary your using. to look up the spelling of a word as I did before using it. http://www.urbandictionary.com/ which is the first google hit dictionary is a slang dictionary.

Of course I could try to BS you all into thinking I meant to use that dictionary but my last deaft attempt at humor was foiled.
1. foiled
a. your evil plan has been ruined.

b. a loosely organized plan has been terminated by the fact that it was only loosely organized.

"sh_t! She found out? My plan is foiled!"
Either A or B works well here. :D

Maybe George but few have realized my adroit method of keeping John's and your original message in front of forum readers. Specially those adroit at using the "view posts since last visit" option. 8) :wink:
