I was posting about Vapor on Joecustoms.com and nearly spelt it Vapour. Just thought that was funny.

Yeah, I find myself typing certain words without the letter u when I'm on Joecustoms. Maybe to be accessible to North Americans in general. But I'll end up typing words like "Vapour" or "colour" around these neck of the woods.

I'm just so used to using the "american" spelling of words. I don't remember the last time a used a u in words like neighbour, colour, etc. This is also true with the spelling of other words.

My spelling is so bad, I am lucky if I spell anything correctly, however I use the Canadian spelling regardless of what nationality the board I am posting to is.
