Proofreading Is A Dying Art

I have been a little busy with writing this week, but dropped by to thank you all for the support and advice about my dilemma in my previous post.
I was sent these proofreading funnies and had to share them with you. It was a poor copy and paste job I am afraid.

Ha! Funny stuff. Thanks for the giggles.

These were funny. I love reading stuff like this. It's even funnier to see it as a headline in a newspaper, or see a TV news person say stuff like this with a straight face.

Susan R. Mills said...

Ha! Thanks for the laugh. I needed it today.

Loree said...
