Thurday; We are please to announce our evenings guest speakers; Rebecca Bowlitt

There's a lot wrong with this Kitsilano Chamber of Commerce advertisement that I saw in The Vancouver Courier on June 18, 2010. First, the only days of the week that do not contain an S are Monday and Friday; the other five - including Thursday - each contain an S. Next, there are two errors in the italicized portion: please needs a D added to the end, and evenings needs an apostrophe added between the G and the S. Finally, Rebecca's last name is first written as Bollwitt, which then becomes Bowlitt, which then reverts back to Bollwitt. Two out of three ain't bad - it's Bollwitt. Click the image to enlarge it.

The Chamber Welcomes it's NEW MEMBERS!

-- Kitsilano Chamber of Commerce advertisement in The Vancouver Courier on May 20, 2009

To all new Chamber members: Run away! Quickly now, before it's too late and the Chamber and its grammatical errors rub off on you.
