the corner office

One or two of my devoted readers feel I'm too inclined to grumbles and rants these days. I can't think of anything particularly funny to write about today, so instead, I will endeavour to add a little erudition to my blog. Today I learned (don't ask) what a corrigendum is, and how it differs from the better-known erratum:

Per Wikipedia:

Erratum or corrigendum (plurals: errata, corrigenda) is a correction of a book. Errata are most commonly issued shortly after the original text was published. ... As a general rule, publishers issue an erratum for a production error (i.e. an error introduced during the publishing process) and a corrigendum for an author's error.

See if you can slip that word into conversation somehow this week. I'll be trying.
