I was reading an obituary recently, and the husband of someone named Karen McPhail spelled their last name McPhaik in one of the memoriam comments.

Prime bought his expensive training gizmo but was not thrilled with it, but barely used it.

He has some good points about things.

I'm tempted to buy his program just so I know what to avoid doing so I don't end up looking like him.
