Melissa Wish you were touring in Florida! Hey it's getting colder in other parts of the country, but we're warm and sunny here. Please consider it! (Sarasota, FL is a perfect destination for writers some don't consider.)

Tom I finished the audio version of your book today. I never expected a book about writing to be so entertaining. Long live Aardvark and Squigly!

Harold

Harold Top Simpsons neologisms for me include the afforementioned "yoink," "craptacular," the month of Smarch, and, of course, Ralph's famous "Me fail English? That's unpossible!"

Jonathan Regarding new words created by Simpsons characters... you can't forget "yoink," which is spoken by the thief whenever anything is stolen, swiped, or grabbed from another person. I hear this one weekly.

Martha My favorite mondegreen is "I led the pigeons to the flag," for "I pledge allegiance to the flag." (FYI, years ago, in the 80's I think, Smithsonian magazine had a whole article about mondegreens. You may want to look it up.)

Nancy Goodwin Have you seen this site? Did you secretly write it? www.apostrophe.me

Kiyo Wiesnoski

Kiyo Wiesnoski ok, so today someone asked me a rather perplexing question at work. What is the grammatically correct way to write this sentence: "There are three kinds of to's in the English language"

I know that "to" cannot take an apostrophe, but "tos" does not make any sense D:

how about re-writing the sentence? E.G. "To" has homophones. How many? Two too many.

Dan

Dan Check Economist magazine (Nov 7-13) , page 15 for the full page, color advertisement for Land Rover. You will find a headline that has "it's" instead of "its" referring to the car.

The advertising copywriters missed the error. Maybe they should read your book.
