This is documented somewhere in the Mathematica Bible (what isn't?) but
you could easily miss it.  I frequently have notebooks with variables like
amatrix, bmatrix, etc. (it's less a matter of enjoyment than one of giving
clear variable names) and get tired of the messages as well.  Put the following
at the top of your notebook 

Off[General::spell]
Off[General::spell1]

and the messages will vanish.  Another good trick is to bring up the style
inspector and make the cell which you put the above commands into an 
initialization cell, then it will be automatically executed when you open 
the notebook (well, you have to set that option in Preferences) and you'll
never see the messages.

Hope this is helpful -- Tom
