They just keep showing up…
First, the back story on this one.
When I was doing a bit of research for my middle school post and double-checking the instrument names last week, I stumbled upon a school website that gave me some very important information.
Wow – we need to keep encouraging Scary Baby to stick with orchestra to boost her test scores.
Seriously, I didn’t groom any of my children towards any one thing to help their college test scores in the 6th grade and I’m probably not going to start now.
But wait, if I was going to start grooming her now, what kind of instrument should she play?
I really cringe when school websites that are teaching are our children aren’t triple-checked and proofread for exactly this reason.
Full Disclosure: I really did type “are children.” I plead coma on this and do it often which is why I am a paranoid proofreader and have never claimed to be able to proof my own work.
TV Typos
When I’m not taking screenshots of typos, I’m freezing the TV and taking pictures of the TV screen. Yes, I know I should get a new hobby.
Just sayin’ – someone gets paid to type that description.
This one is a technically not a typo.
If you see what I see, what would you call it?
One year ago..
Okay I have been up since 5am when work called to say I could stay home on call, so I am not at my best. Can’t find my glasses and as an aside I just want to add that having to wear glasses to read stinks. So with my tired feeble eyes and not totally functioning brain I think I only got 2 out of 4. How about a cheat sheet? I’m just saying….

I’d call it SAD!!!! And, I bet the Navy isn’t too thrilled, either!
Army, Navy, aren’t they all the same?? ROFL I have to share the email the whole staff at my school got from our principal regarding the upcoming Open House one evening this week:
Hmmm…is it a GREAT FORMAT or is it a DROP-IN MEET????

Okay…I looked at the comment I posted above and the copy/paste I did from the email my principal sent the staff didn’t show up when I submitted the comment for some reason. I’ll just type it in myself:
*This is a reminder that we have open house Thursday night 6:30-8:00. Teacher time is 6:15-8:15. This is a drop-in meet and great format. Teachers should have some class/team information available for parents.*
Let me ask again…is it a GREAT FORMAT or is it a DROP-IN MEET??

Shame on me for not getting the Army Admiral because I was a Navy wife!!! Not as cranky as I was on the last post..sorry about that.

I think it’s one of those gaffs that requires them to post some kind of correction/apology! I mean I’m sure the Army doesn’t want to claim him, and the Navy sure doesn’t want to be confused with the Army! I’m so sorry your life is surrounded with typos!
(Maybe the young kids will be turned off by the Beatles and Elvis references and not even bother reading the first part of the school’s post!)
Crud Crud Crud! I’m never posting another comment on Typo Tuesday!
I promise I re-read before posting! Can I blame it on not being done with my morning Diet Coke?
I vote we also have a “Stupidity Saturday” post that could encompass all of the really *dumb* stuff that isn’t technically a typo. Anybody second that?
