My friend Ryan had this blog linked from his blog the other day, and I've gotten the biggest kick out of it. Some of the posts are making me laugh out loud.
I commented on Ryan's blog that I should start an apostrophe abuse blog, because a misused apostrophe is one of my biggest grammar pet peeves, or pet peeve's, if you will.
WELL....apparently such blog already exists. I will be the first to admit that I'm not an English language grammar expert. I generally make up my own punctuation. I use "....." or "--" entirely too much when I write. But the " 's " shouldn't be so difficult to master! Seriously, anyone with a sixth grade education should be able to appropriately apostroph-ize. I have a friend who sent me an email the other day asking that I keep ear's open for any opportunities. Ugh....
Anyway, "keep" you're eye's peeled for "these" blog's"? ;)

your cracking me up? ... a mass e-mail went out at work the other day, in it this phrase appeared: "... correction action will be taken." My skill's were screaming. =)
No one makes me laugh out loud like you!
That's too funny! Let me tell you, I taught sixth grade, and most sixth graders do not know how to appropriately use an apostrophe.
