*This one was caught in the SGV Tribune the other day and called the Editorial Room and asked who wrote this. It took two or three readings before the editor realized that what he was reading was impossible!!! They put in a correction the next day.

Re: Need a smile? News Headlines: Proof that not all editors are good at their jobs
hehehe, that was great. I am always laughing over the lack of editing. I read the entire series of "Clan of the cave bear" and the the whole "Outlander" series. After reading both I felt like contacting the authors and asking if they would like to hire an editor that actually "knows" the English language and how it is supposed to be put together!!!

Clan of the Cave Bear is AWESOME!!! Best series of books i have read and i got all of them for 50pence at a car boot sale!!
I used to proofread articles for school and local magazines and it is hilarious some of the things that people write, and whilst you can totally understand what they mean what they actually write is SOOOOOO different!!!

All of them, even the most recent? I think the one that just came out will be the last.

OMG . I was laughing soooo hard. I was trying to read outloud and that was so difficult to do. I had to stop so many times to wipe my eyes from the tears. Those were great.
