I flew down to Dallas last weekend for a wedding. I had a two-hour layover in Baltimore, so to kill time I perused through the bookstore and found this gem:

I immediately spotted a typographical error, and while it's too late to help Al Gore, I decided to do what I can here on my little piece of the Internet.

This is why I can't stress enough how important it is to have someone edit your writings. Otherwise, mistakes like this can happen.

Your mad editing skillz have taken you to a dark place, my friend.
I'm not sure what you mean by that, but it sounds totally sweet!
Thank you Meg:
For catching my typo and for being an awesomely cool grammar Nazi. I am forever in your debt.
Wow Meg! Al Gore wrote on your blog? Soon you will be on TV making commentaries on how he called you a "cool grammar Nazi" and perhaps his possible antisemitism. I always knew you had potential.
No, thank you Al, for inventing the Internet and allowing me to play on it instead working.
Chels - If I am invited to speaking about Gore, I'll be sure to bring you along at my makeup artist.
Good catch. I (and Al) are sad you caught it just a little too late. Perhaps next time he'll have the foresight to ask for help.
