Fair Grammar

Thanks to Jennifer F. for this one that she found at a fair. Two errors plague this sign. The sign should read, "Mom and Dad Can Ride, Too. Must Have Their Own Tickets."

Ahh, me! "The boys are very excepting..." means that the boys leave her out, which seems to be the opposite of what the article says. The boys are very accepting. If they make her "feel apart," that means they make her feel separate. Surely, the intended meaning is that they make her feel a part. These errors are the fault of the writer, not the speaker.

Notice the wrong use of their/there.

This is from the Clinton Library. Why no apostrophe?

I quit buying gas from Big Red stores about a year ago when I bought a bad tank of gas from them, and they wouldn't pay for the repairs; I do miss the fertile ground for grammar mistakes, though. Here the apostrophe after sundae is incorrect. The scoop of orange sherbet was yummy.
