Zsa Zsa Gabor smiling after surgery, husband says

gbu gabor 300LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Zsa Zsa Gabor smiled and ate ice cream on Saturday, a day after doctors amputated much of the actress’ leg to fight a gangrene infection that could have killer her, her husband said.

PLEASE, WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, WITH ALL THIS TECHNOLOGY AND AN ENGLISH DICTIONARY ON HAND, YOU’D THINK THE AUTHOR OF THIS PIECE COULD DO SPELL CHECK. PERHAPS HE SHOULD EVEN RETURN TO GRAMMAR SCHOOL.

IT ANNOYS ME WHEN I AM MORE SHOCKED BY THE WAY AN ARTICLE IS WRITTEN RATHER THAN BY THE CONTENTS.

S.F.G.

I’m sorry about the typo. Clearly, we meant killed instead of killer, and we fixed it. But was it really worth an all-caps shouting rant? GBU Editor

HEY S.F.G., THE AUTHOR “COULD DO SPELL CHECK”? PERHAPS YOU SHOULD RETURN TO GRAMMAR SCHOOL ALSO. IT ANNOYS ME WHEN I AM MORE SHOCKED BY THE WAY A COMMENT IS WRITTEN RATHER THAN BY IT’S CONTENT.
