Come on, MSNBC!

Everyone knows Carrie lives on the Upper East Side! And that East Side is two words.

Good news about the trilogy, though.

Come on, CNN!

Over the weekend, CNN had these hed busts on its homepage for more than six hours. I see this sort of thing from them all the time!

Copy editors asleep at the wheel, or no copy editors? Which would be worse ... hmm ... I can't decide.

Paws/pause (Or: I'm wrong a lot.)

These two words are not easily confused, apparently, unless you're me.

So, I'm reading an NYT article a bit ago, which quotes a bit of the Christmas carol, "Up On The Housetop." And then I'm thinking, "SPOTTED! AN ERROR IN THE TIMES! BY ME!"

It said, "Up on the housetop / reindeer pause / down comes good ol' Santa Clause."

How could they confuse PAUSE and PAWS? What carrots. So I looked up the lyrics to confirm my catch, only to discover I was dead wrong. I know reindeers can PAUSE, but alas, I guess they don't have PAWS.

So are they hooves?
