I'm not the greatest speller in the group, but I get most of those correct, the camaro one really kills me though.

WOW!!! Is that a 411 or 412? I have NEVER seen one that isn't half gone from rust and shrouded in a cloud of smoke. Looks great!

Jumping on what you think is a short line at Walmart (yecch!) with two items in your hand (the sign says 12 max) and the two elderly people in front of you areactually together and splitting the load. They also bought 11 packs of Halls menthol eucalyptus each, but the sale price didn't come up on the scan. Thecashier is on the clock and doesn't have any reason to move 1 second faster. Meanwhile, lines on both sides of you are flying, and the people have moreitems in their cart. <img src="http://www.ezboard.com/image/posticons/pi_freak.gif" alt="image"><br>

Damn John, this may require a separate "rant" thread for me......hmmmm........

The misspellings aren't limited to eBay, or even the internet. In today's classifieds in my local paper, someone had a wood-burning stove for sale witha "pedal stool" base. I immediately envisioned a small stool with pedals! <img src="http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/roll.gif" alt="image"><br><br>Kevin<br>

Kevin, that's less the individuals and more likely the person running the classified desk who is a doofus. Shameful, at a newspaper. But, that's whyI've seen "Camero" ever since 1967.<br><br>I've actually worked as a proofreader and believe me, nobody cares about the 10,000 mistakes you catch. But the one you miss, hoo-boy!<br>
