How about 'and' instead of 'an'? Way too common mistake. My typing sucks, but I correct it as I go. And every once in a while I let one slip by... And yes, I still look at the keyboard. I always figured I would have a secretary to type stuff for me, until I realized it is much faster and less hassle to do it myself.
