I love encouraging new bloggers--especially kids, just starting out in their writing. However, sometimes what they post is just way too stinkin' cute to not share. And in this particular case, it was a typo that left me smiling. This is from a new, 10-year old blogger:
My Interests: sinning
I know typos are a common occurrence, but sometimes they're just classicly wrong <smile>.
There is a great post on the subject of human-chimp DNA similarities which made me smile for two reasons: First, because it's funny. And second, because it finally gives me some information I've wondered about for a while. Definitely worth a the read.
Puerile: adolescent; displaying or suggesting a lack of maturity
Sophistry: a deliberately invalid argument displaying ingenuity in reasoning in the hope of deceiving someone

P.S. And one more post I think you should read, though I felt like I couldn't link to it directly in my Other Posts of Note because of the title.
Thanks for the link, Luke! I hope your ten-year-old friend finds some new interests soon LOL.
Very cute :) I love typos like that.
Funny finds, Luke!!!
Thanks for the tip, Luke.
You know, I have to smile at the typo b/c, even though I'm sure the kid entered that as a mistake, isn't it really an interest of all of us? Humor is often grounded in unspoken truth!
Mrs. C, you are very welcome!
Heather, me too <smile>.
Kim, thanks!
Ken, thank you for the linking to those articles. They were very encouraging.
Warren, good point. And, yes, too often, sinning is an interest.
