The spelling Nazi had a typo on the logo of his own blog.



I discovered the misspelling of "Achievers" on my logo this morning. I'd seen the word on a poster in an office that said something about "Striving to Achieve" or some shit like that. I thought that "achieve" was misspelled, much to my joy. I then came home and grew suspicious of my own spelling of "achievers" on my site: Big pile of smelly fail. Immediately opened Photoshop and fixed the problem.

I think it'd been up there forever. Me, the sultan of spelling. The Shah of semantics. The purveyor of paragraphs. The leader in literary, um literarynous. Bringing you subjects and predicates for 10 years. I was sixth place spelling champion in the City of Portland in 1986 for chrissakes.

I mean, I'll excuse typos in posts because these witticisms are machine gunned so fast that I have to type damned quickly to keep up. Sometimes I slip up and I, keeping with my anti self-disciplinary tendencies, will let that slide. You know, sometimes I type faster than I think. I've actually forgotten what website I was about to go to and yet I'll have typed out the correct URL. I've even meant to type one word but then another, better one appeared. It's odd.

If these updates seem infrequent for you, remember the tweets on the right. I'm also going to do more audio because I actually pay monthly for that service. I was going to do a phone post from bed this morning but couldn't even remember the name of the service to which I should call.

Peace.
