I cut this sentence out of a magazine a few years back:
"Ron Smith, owner and chief instructor of the recognized school, said he believes his school was chosen because his program specializes in teaching personal devilment and life skills to children, teens and adults."
Most kids have a little devil in them already.
The moral of this story is you should always read what you've written before you send it off to the printer.
