Noted



EVG reader David shared this from outside the psychic's space on Third Street between Avenue B and Avenue C. No word if the palm reader foretold these typos on its new sign.

EVG regular Pinhead spotted this rather unfortunate menu typo at the new Good Guys on Second Avenue... to the Grievestrator...


H/t to Pinhead for the headline too!

Classic Gourmet Deli no longer on Frist Avenue

A few weeks ago, we noted the new signage for the Classic Gourmet Deli on First Avenue... which, as many people pointed out, had its share of typos... including "Frist" Avenue instead of First Avenue.

Anyway, EVG regular William Klayer reports that the sign has been spellchecked (spell checked? spell-checked?) ...

East Village room not meant for large coaches

Speaking of typos...



Via Streeteasy:

Large room for rent in a Prime East Village Townhouse. Easily fit a queen size bed, small coach & entertainment unit.


So, this implies that I'd have no room for my Rex Ryan?

Meanwhile, in Los Angeles...a new president takes office


The Los Angeles Times accidentally called our new president Barack H. Hussein in a post on the full text of Obama's inaugural speech...

And readers were nice about it, really.

You might want to fix the final word of this piece ... he is President Obama, not President Hussein.

Barack H. Hussein - a typo or a fruedian slip?

I apologize if I'm missing something obvious, but why does it say that the speech was authored by "Barack H. Hussein"? I'm relatively sure the word "Obama" should be in there somewhere.

Thanks to those astute readers who pointed out an error in Barack Obama's name as it's written at the end of his inaugural address. We've since corrected the error.
