   Meh. Looks like the work of a Kos Kiddie to me. Who knows? Maybe that Ivy League genius Keith Olbermann hacked into the billboard’s controller and altered the spelling. Maybe he was jealous of the great Rose Bowl hack when the scoreboard showed that Caltech was playing MIT and not Cornell.

    Fans of Wild West Tech may recognize this one:

    Once upon a time a, um, professional lady of the evening was shot by a rival. She died of a gunshot wound to the Pubic Arch. The local paper mis-printed it as “Public Arch,” which the townfolk actually thought more accurate.

    The stimulus money pays for job creation only in the near term. It’s up to Notre Dame to find the money to continue the positions.

    The intent is not to provide temporary work, Bernhard said. “The university is going to work pretty hard to keep those jobs here, by finding new sources of money,” he said.

    Yep. Brain surgeons, all.

    Took me a second, and then I saw it. However, considering the state of the Public School System in this country, the way children are being marketed to in television ads, music, (i.e.: “Lady GaGa, Ke$ha, Katy Perry,) et al, this actually may not be a typo, but the best and most accurate description/depiction of their schools.

    I’m a copywriter and proofreader… I can somewhat sympathize with this mistake because a letter that has been omitted in the middle of a word is actually very easy to miss, because when we read, our brains are actually trained to focus on the first and last letters of a word.

    That said, there’s nothing better to drive home my point about WHY my two children are in private school than a misspelled word on a sign that promotes public schools – whether it’s at an NEA rally or an interstate billboard. Priceless!
