Editing on the fly
Someone crossed out an erroneous apostrophe in my apartment manager's hand-written note the other day.
I swear it wasn't me.

Haha, yeah, it's very tempting to correct spelling errors as you see them but I see so many of them, both minor and very major, that I would likely go insane trying to fix all of them.
haha i try to fix them all!
Gee, thanks now you have awakened my inner grammarian.
I have to do some editing now.
Is it just the picture, or does your appartment manager just not write his "E"s with a vertical line?
I would have done it. I cannot help but edit, it is my reason for being! Not really, but its hard not to.
Happy C&C Monday.
I walked by a middle school in my neighborhood today with a sign up that said "GRATFUL THANKSGIVING, NOVEMBER 23" (right next to the "NO FIREARMS" sign).
You have to love the American public school system.
The problem with responding to a post like this is that you have to be extra careful about typos. I lose all faith in my editorial eye. (Or is that loose all faith?)
