PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE SPELLING KIND:

You pore over books.

You pour syrup on pancakes.

Do not get these two confused. It could result in Unfortunate Circumstances of the Sticky book kind.

A "Whig" is a member of a colonial political party. They opposed autocratic rule. Daniel Webster was a "Whig".

A "wig" is a hairpiece.

Do not get those two confused. I often imagine that you are wearing a colonial gentleman on your head. While this may be funny, it does not make sense.

Or like this sign across the street from my house:

Computer's for Sale!

Although this sentence amused me: "Now I know you don't want to listen, but please bare with me"

Umm...I'd really rather not.

But still the one that will forever make me crazy is the people who don't know the difference between "you're" and "your"
