Just when I figured now that I’m a grownup I can spell most common words, I am humbled by the Los Angeles Mission.

I’m writing out a check to the cause to sponsor a table for their annual Thanksgiving dinner for the homeless, and in the memo line of my check, I wrote:

Memo: donation to Thanksgiving capagne
______________________________

Memo: donation to Thanksgiving campagne

Memo: donation to Thanksgiving campagne Campaigne .

How pathetic. I never knew I couldn’t spell “campaign.” My check looks retarded.
