Well, if I am going to be graded on my spelling, there will be lots more oportunitiues, spelling is not one of my strong points.
Just teasing. Actually, many don't know two important facts:
1. Potatoe is an accepted alternate spelling.
2. That's how the teacher had it spelled on her flash card.
There is no more treacherous trap than spelling in English, due to the varied sources of our our words. Heaven knows it's been the subject of many comedians' routines!

OK, I was having flashbacks of being teased at school by teachers and other students over it, even though that was decades ago. School in the 1960's was not kind to dyslexics. Also, I don't follow U.S. politics, so I am not familiar with the Dan Q. quote.
Anyway, I guess the "e" goes in when it is plural and gets dropped when it is used singularily. Spell check on WORD, EXCEL and Office Outlook is a good thing, these days
As far as odors and cats go, we had a cat at one time that used to continuously go after one friend when he came over to visit. She used to uncharateristically atack his hands, she was normally quite gentle.
He used snuff and that was what the attraction was, the other cat we had at the time was not the least bit interested.
