Once upon a time, I worked in Quality Assurance at a computer company, and discovered that even after leaving work, I would be finding bugs and crashing computers even in my leisure activities. I crashed a whole bank of information computers at Disney World. I discovered a bug in an arcade game that had it giving me two games for the price of one. Stuff like that. And as I publish books and do most of the editorial effort myself, even though I am far from perfect in that effort, I can’t turn off the editing eyes I’ve developed.<\/p>\n

So it’s with that in mind that I must tell you that, if you share my tendency, you should still get the lovely Peanuts Artist’s Edition<\/strong>… but skip the final page, which features a\u00a0biography of Schulz. It has typographical errors (there’s a difference between a hyphen and a dash, folks.) It has problematic word choices (notoriety<\/em> doesn’t just mean fame<\/em>; it means fame with a bad reputation<\/em>. The adjective form of it is notorious<\/em>.) And it’s got one major spelling error so big that AAUGH Blog reader Pat was able to spot it just by watching the video I made of me flipping through the book. I bet many of you will spot it as well:<\/p>\n
