I've caught myself doing it with here and hear.

I drove past a parking lot today, and a couple of workers were painting white lines. They had a sharp black truck and trailer, with large white letters on the trailer, "PARKING LOT STRIPPING."

Isn't there a public ordinance against that kind of thing?

Or was this just on the seedy side of town?

A real big one in the Branson area is misspelling Shepherd of the Hills. The most common misspelling is "Shepard of the Hills". doh

About two or three weeks ago on the marquee sign of the RFD Theater said "Marty Strurat" Instead of Marty Stuart. I mean how hard is it to get your headline entertainer's name right?

I vote for "sheep heard" of the hills, or possibly "sheep herd". . . . .depending upon meaning, of course!

From a homemaking blog, responding to a recipe for homemade laundry detergent:

Does the addition of bleach cause a fowl reaction with any of the ingredients.

I so wanted to respond: Only when you're stuffing poultry into your washing machine.

When necessary, I wash my pullets with warm water and "dawn" in the kitchen sink, towel dry them and place them in a warm enviornment until completely dry. Bleach sink and surrounding area's thoroughly afterwards!
