Someone at Providence College can't spell

Seriously, y'all. I received an email from my alma mater this morning, the subject of which was "Relieve the magic of the 1987 Final Four season." For real! What the hell? Well, I suppose it was some underpaid office person who was in charge of emailing alumni, but still. I'm kind of embarrassed that I graduated from an institution that will send out emails with blatant spelling errors.

In other news: how much of a snob am I?

In other, other news, I've realized that I have developed a habit of not punctuating rhetorical questions with question marks. I think I kind of like it that way, at least for informal writing. Playing with punctuation, if you know what you're doing, makes expressing yourself in text more fun.

In conclusion, if my snobbery were to take physical form, it would at least be the size a sport utility vehicle.
