HappyCrazyMama Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 (edited) Poor kitten. :( eta- Um, well I thought I was right but know that I think about it, it is possessive but plural too. Should it be millionaires'? Does the kitten live if the apostrophe is just misplaced? Am I totally wrong and just look like a doofus now? :lol: Edited November 20, 2010 by Happyhomemama Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You win, Mrs. Mungo! It's fixed now--did you know you were so powerful? ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Mungo Posted November 20, 2010 Author Share Posted November 20, 2010 You win, Mrs. Mungo! It's fixed now--did you know you were so powerful? ;) LOL, it's not headline that was wrong, it's the link from other pages. For example, scroll to the bottom of this story (which, I am not discussing, it's just an example). It's the link at the bottom of various stories that is wrong. I know, I'm petty. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think only unnecessary apostrophes kill kittens. Misplacing an apostrophe probably only maims a kitten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
