Bad Spell

I was downtown earlier this week at the old Variety Arts Center (a block up from Staples Center). They have these posters marking special spots in old LA, and there was one describing all the great entertainers who appeared there, including Buster Keaton and Laurel & Hardy. They even had a picture of old Banjo Eyes, Eddie Cantor. Except they spelled it "Kantor."

I was meeting someone for lunch. In the restaurant, they listed three different drink sizes, including "midium."

It all proves my point--knowing how to spell is an outmoded talent that only brings one pain.
