Expresso

I think it's funny when people pronounce and/or use words incorrectly. I'm sitting in Starbucks, waiting for my writing group to convene, and the guy behind the counter is going on and on about how the "expresso" that they put in their drinks is the same "expresso" that they brew. It reminds me of student papers that I recently graded, in which one student wrote about the "Application" mountains and others (more than I care to say) talked extensively about how Puritan women were expected to "bare" children.
