When Julie's husband was laid off, they gave him this box to bring his stuff home in. I guess they are expecting a few office supplies to suddenly become "yours".
eye of the beholder, Bethany. The 'stuff' may never make it to it's destination, because whoever reads the side of the box can quickly declare themself the owner.
Well it's unlikely that whoever printed the words on the box is going to be the owner of said stuff, so maybe they couldn't bring themselves to write "my" sans quotes..
Please send your submissions via email to bethanykeeley (at) gmail.com. I look at them all, but it might take a while to get to yours -- sorry! I love you all, but I only have so much energy in a day.
If you want your picture to make the blog DO NOT @tweet them, or leave them in a comment. I need them all in the same place. Make sure your emails are easily distinguishable from spam or viruses (I use gmail web interface, so images get previews).
I don't usually post the following: newspaper headlines, personal email, craigslist postings, unprofessional websites. I also tend to not crosspost things from other blogs, since I have so much unique material waiting for me to get to it.
Things I see a lot: silica gel "do not eat"; hair dryer labels; inside the bus "do not drill"; Wal-mart sign about IDs; coffee machine with "2" cup sizes; employees must "wash hands"; that failblog post.

OMG, this grammar nazi is so "happy" to find your blog!
I've been collecting unnecessary apostrophes for a while now, wish I'd thought of blogging it...
