Cool cat, lookin' for a kitty.

A cautionary tale.

Friends, in the age of Twitter, Facebook, Blogger, texting, and yes, even my dear pal Instagram, one must take great care in the striking of the keys, lest their mis-type should create an entirely different verbal effect than the one intended.  There are so many opportunities in life nowadays to record our finger fumbles for posterity.  We must diligently "mind our P's and Q's."  We must unswervingly "cross our T's and dot our I's."  And we should probably pay some attention to our N's as well, as it turns out.

A rookie mistake and a rad result:

Two days ago, I posted a status on Facebook which was meant to say "knitting."  However, in one such moment of imprudent typing, I instead wrote the non-word "kitting."  The rookie mistake.

The rad result?  A witty friend of mine, with a keen editing eye, caught this mistake.  He sought clarification as to whether this "kitting" that I spoke of was, as he assumed, "knitting miniature scarves and hats for kittens."  I must say I think this will one day be my favorite flavor of knitting.  Then this happened:

You know what?  No.  Throw caution to the wind.
