Dont worry about it. I was in the newspaper business for 30 years.
You should see some of the trouble a simple typo got *me* into.
Once, in 72-point type, on a $4,000 page ad: "First Bank of XXXX
Would Like To Make A Pubic Announcement."

You don't know the meaning of the word "grovel" until you've been in
my moccasins.

That's hilarious, and it sure beats the typo that I used to tell
people about. I typed our church bulletins for awhile and for some
reason I kept typing "Prince of Peach." I caught most of them and as
far as I know, only one made it into print -- but I sure heard a lot
of laughs about that one.

For some reason I can't type "Baptist" (see, I had to type that very
carefully) without typing "Batpist"
