do's and don'ts; cocunut water; Dos and Don't; Vegas message parlors

-- "Dos and Don't of a Vegas Baseball Trip (The Wind Up)" on Sympatico / MSN Sports on July 31, 2009

I wonder if cocunut water is tastier than coconut water. Anyway, the grammatically incorrect do's and don'ts on the homepage turns into the grammatically correct but situationally incorrect Dos and Don't in the article's headline. Dos and Don't would be correct if there were more than one Do and only one Don't, but there are several of both in the article. If you had a sore back, would you go to a message parlor or a massage parlor?
