Skool

I've noticed that my spelling skills have diminished a little as I've gotten older, but if I'm not sure about something -- I'll look it up via Google or Dictionary.com.

While driving home last night, I had to stop and take a photo of this school's unfortunate sign spelling error. Come on, folks, you're at a SCHOOL.

I weep for our future.

**Addendum**
The more I looked at this sign, the more I thought of this:

I don't know what's more embarrassing here -- their amusingly ironic spelling error, or the fact that it took me over a month to notice it even though I drive past this school twice each day on average.

And also - it was spelled like this on both sides of the sign, so they can't blame it on running out of "C" letters.

Speaking about school, I'm hoping to have an "evening of exellence" tonight-- wish me luck, and that my paper turns out in more promising fasion than the sign.

Postings like this make me paranoid about my spelling.

If this isn't the proof that we need No Teacher Left Behind, I don't know what is.

"Silent" is supposed to be spelled with a "c"?! Maybe my spelling is worse than I thought...
