This is on me.

For the past forty eight years I have made my living as a verbal communicator. I would not have passed high school English if it had not been for the New York State Regents exam. I have no college but I do have an advanced degree in dyslexia. This man is very aware of his own proclivity towards errant spelling and sometimes unintelligible sentence structure.

Many years ago my wife had the responsibility of producing the weekly church bulletin. One week she had other responsibilities away from home and as a loving husband I produced the bulletin for her with out telling her so. When she returned home I had a nice surprise ready for her. I made her favorite tea, sat her down at the dining room table, served the tea, and presented her with the bulletin. When I gave her the bulletin I actually tossed it onto the table in front of her and exclaimed "look at this Babe." The paper was still moving when she quickly stuck her finger near the center of the page and said, "you misspelled this word."

May I raise a question? Why is it that I usually see misspells and odd sentence structure when done by others yet frequently miss my own?
The above story is true and yet I know that when any proofreader reads it he will probably smack his forehead with the palm of his hand and utter the misstatement, "Oh, My God!"

BE STRONG IN THE LORD, AND IN HIS MIGHTY POWER. ~ Ephesians 6:10

Socialism is a philosophy of failure,
the creed of ignorance,
and the gospel of envy,
its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
--Winston Churchill
