A Basketfull of Eggcorns

So...I was really excited to see a reference to Language Log in our reading for today. As I mentioned at the beginning of the semester, it's a really cool site to visit if you are fascinated with language and the things people say.

For our purposes, however, it is the Eggcorn Database that is maintained by (among others) Arnold Zwicky (also from Language Log) that caught my attention for our discussion.
