I didn't see it, but a friend told me that her daughter recently received a note from a plumber she'd called to correct a problem - in which "water" was misspelled. She's having the note framed.
Of course, I myself got a letter a week or so ago from a going-out-of-business antiques mall manager who spelled "merchandise" as "merchendise".
Twice.
No wonder the mall went out of business.
The public works department in my town recently mailed form letters out to residents with the word permanent and permanently misspelled permanantly and permanant. I filled out the application and noticeable correction of the misspellings. Just now, I checked their website and the form letter has been written without using the word. Last year I also corrected the same words, but nothing changed. At least this year I got someone's attention. (Having special trash pickup must be renewed annually.)

I was so busy laughing that I forgot to ask! "Watter", perhaps?? I'll try to find out and let everyone here know, as I'll be seeing the same lady early next week.

If that happened in New Jersey it would be spelled 'wudder'.
