ORLANDO, Fla. - A beloved rooster that had become a bit of a celebrity in Oviedo, Florida has flown the coop for the great hen house in the sky.
Emma Reichert, an Oviedo real estate agent, posted on her Facebook page that her pet rooster Fred, the "Crown Prince Rooster of Oviedo," had recently died – "untimely death… at the hands of night critters."
"Flown the coop TO the great hen house..." Can't anyone write correctly anymore?
I swear, one day I'm going to become the world overlord and force every Engrish speaking journalist, hack and writer to a two year course based on "Warriner's English Grammar and Composition." Failure will equal death. Pass will require at least a 90% grade.
The dictionary has changed with so many new words that the incorrect words are acceptable. It's part of the new everything goes world. You don't want to offend anyone now do you?
