Is it the apostrophe missing from what's?

This is very clever. I hope you don't mind if I steal it, link to you, and add you to my blogroll!

You've got it Kristen! (and I didn't at first!)

Sure Bob - help yourself. I stole it from a blog, but I can't remember whose! I have quite a few I read.

Thanks for the link. Now ... to think of something post-worthy.

ohhhh, I got busted. I was thinking it was VW or zeros for O's. Throw me in with the 80% who didn't even look closely at the instructions!

I thought it was that there were three of each letters. Maybe 80 percent see three letters as one? That was my thought.
Stupid, stupid me.
