I am very happy to take the occasion and announce that our very own Charlene has finally cleared 1,000 posts!
I have experienced and I am certain everyone will agree with me, that Charlene is always helpful, consistently kind, and universally positive in all her dealings with us.
I also have bought books from Charlene's husband's online book selling business and had exceptionally great service. Charlene has also given me great advice on pet care, something I appreciate muchly. This is not an endorsement or any such thing, just one person speaking the truth.

Congratulations, Charlene. If you want to make it to 2000, you had better watch out for the unidentified falling objects. It may be a good idea to think about wearing a hard hat, even when you are in your home because you never know when a similar event may happen again. People may think that you are wierd, but you can laugh at their ignorance. Seeing meteor crater in Arizona made me a believer. However, in that case I don't think that your hard hat would have helped that much.
Is it Charlene with a "ch" sound as in charcoal or with an "sh" sound as in Chevette? I need to know, as I am rehearsing for the introductory remarks to her reception in the Frequent Posters' Lounge.
Walden - It's "sh" - like the way the French pronounce Charles - it's the French feminine form of Charles.
Cowtime - thank you for the lovely gown! And thanks for thinking I could actually FIT into it!
Doug Tipple - people already think I'm weird, so it wouldn't change matters any! Even the "what flower are you" test on Facebook came out as:
I'm Nigella
Many people think you are just a little bit odd, but you consider yourself just a little eccentric. You find new experiences exciting and fulfilling.

There is nothing wrong with being weird. My wife thinks that I am a little weird. Can you imagine that?
Now about the spelling of the word "weird". On my post I incorrectly spelled it "wierd". It didn't look exactly right when I wrote it, but I thought of the saying that we learned in English class, "i before e, except after c". There must have been more to the expression that I have forgotten.

No. You just need to recall, as Denny says, that weird is weird and doesn't follow the rule.
edit: I see that point has been hammered into the dirt.
Tell us something.: This is the first sentence. This is the second of the recommended sentences intended to thwart spam its. This is a third, bonus sentence!
