Here's one for the ages---I was walking down the corridor to my dungeon of a cubicle when I saw a clipping from today's paper tacked to my co-workers "office." The headline read "Attorneys general demand Craigslist drop erotic ads." My jaw dropped; I couldn't believe that got by the proofreader. It should've been "Attorney Generals demand..." Unbelievable. What's even more shocking is when you run this through a spell/grammar checker, the original headline does not show up wrong. That's the problem with relying too much on a program to find one's errors. Always remember to proof what you write.
