Oh. My. Gosh.

As a writer, there are a few things that make me crazy. Bad grammar, poor spelling, overuse of commas....things like that.

You can imagine the horror I experienced today when I found this flier in my mailbox (and I am quoting it EXACTLY as it is written):

josh's lawn care

mow grass

does hedge's

shovel snow

trimm's tree's

pull weeds

cut's small trees

------------

For the love of all that is holy and grammatically correct.

'does hedge's'? 'trimm's tree's'?????

Seriously. I nearly fainted from shock. I should also mention that the ENTIRE flier was in lower case letters. There wasn't one upper case letter to be found.

I want to call the number listed on the flier, if only to offer my copy editing services.
