Why Can't These People Spell?

Alas, a very long while since a post, but sometimes things irritate one so much that he/she must shoot their mouth off right back. Take , for instance, the recent picture I saw on Yahoo News where in Ireland an ATM machine is pictured with the caption below it reading......."A person withdrawals money from the so & so bank in Dublin, Ireland......."

Now, I realize that I typed it in bold and italicized it and also underlined it, but does everyone see what I see? One withdrawals the money. I always thought the people who posted these articles were professionals and proof read all their work. Apparently not! Here's a novel idea, how about spell check? Come on folks, you get paid a lot more money than I do, I'm sure, let's at least learn how to spell.

I can't tell you how many times I have spotted spelling errors on the Internet. As I stated in my opening comments, it just plain irritates me!
