I do NOT want to hear a grammar lesson from Portland Mercury until it starts using "ensure" and "insure" correctly, and stops spelling "judgment" as "judgEment." So fuck off.

At least I know what people are thinking when they use a possessive apostrophe in "it's." I have no idea what it means when people add one when talking about a decade, e.g. "the 90's."
