When I'm wrong, I'm wrong.

A quick word about part of my vocabulary which I'm just now learning to spell correctly:

Y'all.

For years, I wrote ya'll. But does that make sense? No, it does not. If the apostrophe is supposed to* stand in place of something, in this case it needs to replace the o-u in you.

My apologies to Texas and anyone else I may have offended with this error.

Thank you; that'll be all. Y'all.

*It's supposed to, not suppose to. I've seen this a lot lately. I'm just saying.
