Soon after it was posted here, it was pulled off the WCHS site.
I think the service they use for the news thing is an automatic bot that posts whatever is received.
I have seen many things on there that have the headline:" write a headline for this".
Somebody must have called them on the teacher thing.
More than likely the teacher that won does not know it yet.
Pity there are no bookmakers laying odds on this.
Make some money.

On screen graphics from their sister station, WVAH, during the 10:00 PM news last night:

FLEE MARKET RE-OPENIN?G

(I guess the fleas did flee the market during the fire.)
And from their webiste (I added the arrow):

"RE-OPENIN?G"

Hmmm... maybe typos aren't all that uncommon after all.

Sorry. The misspelled word in the message that points out a typo and has a tag of "This message was fully spell checked and contains no mispelt werds" was too much to pass up.

It's all good!

Spell checkers are quite common and inexpensive, but you have to watch for the indicators that something is wrong.

Nobody cares.

Well, gee. Thanks.

I almost had a little fun there pointing out an irony in a tongue-in-cheek fashion.

Thanks for setting me straight on that. I'll try to squelch my sense of humor.
By the way, I suspect you missed the point entirely.

Sorry Brad, I miss a lot of points.
I just don't think that these business' take their web sites seriously.
I apologize and will now slit my wrists to make amends.
Or I could take a ball-peen hammer to my big toes.
Maybe force myself to watch "The View" later on tv.
Too many decisions.

Can I borrow the hammer when you're finished? My toes haven't been whacked in a while. Wrist-slitting is out of the question. The sight of blood and all...
