Yeah and I hate it when I see a glaring error just
as I poke the "submit" button. Oops.

When my wife worked at the newspaper she had to be extra careful when typing up wedding stories, so she didn't end up typing "untied" instead of "united"!

Ain't that the truth. Need bigger keys on the board, for fat not so precise fingers, and poor eyesight. HeHe.

Turn two letters around and "Nuclear Physics" becomes "Unclear Physics".

Rather apt, I think.

When I was in the catholic elementary school, one of the
spelling words was "shirt". Dad reminded me the night before
the test not to forget the "R", which I did.

Back in school , I learned that sometimes the P is silent, like in swimming pool.

That was almost in the deep end...MTP...

Quite a few years ago, the local paper had big headlines about a local baseball pitcher who pitched a no-hitter. Except they added another letter in front of the "hitter" part.
My dad thought that was hilarious. I'm not sure if it was the proof-reader's last day or if he was asleep that day, but I'm sure he heard about it.
Last fall, our local high school sent out the school year public calendar to all the parents. Except the word "public" was spelled "pubic". The school board said that it had gotten past their spell checker and if anybody wanted a revised calendar, they could get one free of charge.

I notice "where" and "were" get mixed up sometimes

I can relate. Years ago, there was a country song
named "Untied" sung by Tommy Collins. I noticed
in a catalog for old 33 1/3 LPs that it was listed
as "United".

I like proof reading, but now with my approaching
"cadillacs" it's harder to pick out the
"misteakes".
