"Pardon me, Cecil, but would you happen to have spellchecker on your laptop?"

"But of course, Basil!"

"Excellent. Be so kind as to find out the correct spelling of 'school' for me and hand over that spray paint..."

I was going to say something, but everything I could have possibly discussed with any relevance has been eclipsed by this post.

A typo is suddenly, 'dumbing down of American culture'? I think subby is helping with that just fine all by himself.

It was a jewish educational place and didn't know whether to put 'shul' or 'school' and did a little of both

You need to be a valedictorian to spell school correctly?

I think it speaks volumes about peoples ability to inflate a mistake all the way up to social commentary.

I don't get it. Isn't it supposed be written in reverse, so you can seen it when you're driving? Like "ambulance"?

Good enough for union work.

Presumable they attended a school for at least 10 straight years. It doesn't take a valedictorian to figure out how to spell a word that you see every day.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Going back, I see that it was painted by hand. Even worse.

Because I'm sure the guys on the road crew speak English.

The fact that a Mexican painted it speaks volumes more I think.

FTA:
"But one city worker, who didn't want to be identified, put the blame on nearby school officials.

"Regardless of who painted it, someone from the school should have been outside supervising, or noticed it by now," the city worker said. "This is sloppy work.""

Seriously? What school district has staff with enough spare time to go around supervising road crews? What a retard.

Eh, my daughter is always bringing home things from teachers and/or school administration that has misspellings, apostrophe misuse, poor grammar, etc. I can't expect better from road workers when the people charged with educating our children aren't much better.
