Revising Miss Sarah

OK, I know that most of the stuff I post is just misspellings, which are unfortunate but happen to the best of us. But editors  are so much more than that—we help you rephrase your thoughts, and hone and clarify your written or spoken words. That is, we do our best to make you sound less like an idiot. So who needs an editor? Everyone. Yes, I mean you, ex-Governor/ex-V.P. candidate Sarah Palin.

At least you can change a sign. It’s a little harder when the mistake is permanently etched on your skin: Tattoo Wrecks. I’m sad to see that there are 14 people who didn’t take the time to consult a dictionary (or a friendly local copy editor) when it came time to choose lifelong body art. I’m even sadder to think that this is probably only a fraction of people walking around with “To young to die” or “Tomarrow never knows” inscribed on their flesh.

A nice day in Belmullet

Still not sure exactly what they meant to say, but it must have been quite a relaxing day in Belmullet.

Thanks, Marla.
