KFC offers free clobber

Thanks to Carrie for this one. Obviously, this should be "free cobbler." With this reading though, I guess they might punch you if you order one of these meals.

Searcy Signs

This sign is posted near the cash register in the Harding University cafeteria. I originally only noticed the error on the first line, but after closer inspection, I, with the help of my cohorts, found several other mistakes. Thanks, gals. Here are the mistakes I noticed:
1. "Its" should be "it's" because what the writer means is "it is."
2. "Your's" is never correct. It is "yours."
3. "Pickes" is not spelled correctly. It should be spelled "picks."
4. "Theives" is spelled incorrectly. It should be spelled "thieves."
As a graduate of the Harding English program, I hope that these mistakes have been noticed by others, especially those in the English department.

This sign is at Hardee's on Race Street in Searcy, Arkansas. "Biscut" should be spelled "biscuit."

This sign in Searcy, Arkansas, has annoyed me for some time. Thanks to my dad for capturing this one. In case you are wondering, the sign should read, "YOU'RE HERE NOW." Posted by Picasa

Apostrophe clutter strikes again. Amazing (at least to me) is the fact that this sign is lighted. Most likely more than one person saw it, approved it, and knew it would be displayed.
