With the right wing policies on education, you can make sure that students will all start writing like that, if not worse.
Spelled his name wrong too. It’s Mc – not MC
I don’t know, perhaps there is only one student for McCain? That would make this sort of correnct
Oops, I do know how to spell correct. Sorry about that.

Perhaps some quotation marks would have helped you to understand I was correcting myself? As in: “Oops, I do know how to spell ‘correct.'” The usage was properly done in the previous post.
Now if this one is typed incorrectly, understand that the screen will only let me see part of what I type. Plus, I had been correcting myself and not someone else. Is that not correct?
I love these little errors. I’ve never been able to grasp how to use an apostrophe correctly every time.

As far as I can tell, most people have a little tool that looks like a salt shaker, but the holes on the top are larger than usual. This shaker is filled with apostrophes and quotation marks. When a person is done writing, he or she takes this device and shakes it over the page. Then the page is filled with apostrophes and quotation marks – whether the marks are correctly applied is not the issue. I believe my pastor has one of these little shakers filled with apostrophes. If you check out the blog “Cake Wrecks” you will find that many cake decorators have shakers filled with quotation marks.
They also have special shakers for those who like smiley faces, circles, or hearts for dotting the “i”. This is a niche market and not a big seller.
I have my own grammatical struggles, so I really should not criticize; but it is such fun!
