I just emailed that MORON Calvin and told him he might want to alter his ad to at least get the name of the car spelled correctly. What a freakin' idiot!

Matt...that is funny! LOL!

James, I hope you didn't use the words "alter" and "correctly". If so, the meaning of your message won't be grasped.

..maybe I'm the slow one here, because I just figured out what "THATS ALL THE BAD THIR IS SOW CALL CALVIN" means.

That's why I put in "928" as the only search term on Craiglook.com

Spellings I've read:
Porsch
Porche
Porsha
Porcher (like the vanities/sinks)
Porsher
Porcshe

and...
Porsche

He's in Washington DC. I thought it might be a member of our government but then I realized his intelligence level is far too high.

Well this just in, maybe he's way ahead of the rest of us? Nah, I doubt it.

I was going to say, "is Calvin a code name for Obama? Seems like someone in your government"

Hey I love those misspelled ads, especially when its a key thing like Porshe and never spelled correctly in the ad. I've come close and actually gotten a few very good deals because so few people will see the ad.

What burns me are the people that put that block of keywords in ads to get hits on any search.
