While America is busy running around today, buying turkeys and flying to relatives’ homes, I thought I’d make today’s blog brief. I wasn’t sure what to say until I was stuck in traffic behind this ambulance today:
I can hope only that they're better at saving lives than they are at spell checking.
Essentially, it says, “EMS at it is best.” which makes no sense. Now, before you go calling me a grammar snob over my it’s vs. its, please remember that words and spelling do matter. They really do, as shown in these, some of the world’s most expensive typos. After all, forget a space between two small words and suddenly “the pen is mightier than the sword” has an entirely different meaning — one that many men probably believe, but has never been substantiated. Just ask Lorena Bobbitt.
