Quote - The one that gets me every time is writing "would have" the way it's pronounced "would of" :)

As in, I would of been on time if I had woken up earlier.   Come on people, it's have been, not of been!!  "Of" is a preposition, not a verb!

I've caught myself doing that before, and am fully aware of the difference.  I can only guess that my brain is sounding it out before typing and forgetting what it knows.

Being from WV, I can tell you that people around here love their extry apostrophes.  My least favorite signs are for places that deal in used CD's, TV's, and/or VCR's.
