Sue’s busy summer continues, with another break in blogging on the horizon: I’m off to Nova Scotia for a wedding. So I’ve been busy making sure all my projects are up to date (and I’m pleased to say, some are even ahead of schedule). Just checked my feeds and tried to catch up on all the other blogs I follow; made a small stab at it but still left some with 10-15 posts to catch up on.

Meanwhile, the latest creative spellings in Toronto’s largest newspaper: something was at a “discrete” (distinct or separate) distance rather than discreet; someone wanted to “sew” the seeds (with needle and thread?) rather than sow; and someone’s credentials were “bone” fide vs. bona fide (genuine or sincere). What booboos have you seen lately?

P.S. Akismet gleefully tells me it has stopped more than 3,000 spam messages since it was installed. I often take a fast look through the ones in the holding cell, and am astounded how many talk about Vi*agara and similar products. Are these messages really effective?
