Re: too much Lost?

I had my students write 12 sentences with most commonly confused in the English language, its, there, your and to. I had one student who did not number his sentences and wrote them in the middle of the page. As I was reading them I actually thought that he had copied down the transcripts of the whispers that I saw somewhere. Here's what it looked like:
It's not dark yet
You're getting really annoying.
They're all having a good time.
Its mine not yours.
Is that your game?
That's theirs.
I wanna go too.
No man, thats too much.
What are you doing there?
Her favorite number is two.
They're all bored.
Whats your favorite color?

Man, what am I going to do when this show is over? Maybe I'll start reading comics again.

In one sentence (including the other common error -then/than)...

Whether it's your crown or not, if you're to reign over this kingdom then you're to wear it over to there where they're at to fill its two sockets with gems till it looks too heavy unless the weather looks worse than rain.

Or in the vernacular that seems common on message boards and elsewhere...
In won sentence...

Weather its you're crown or knot, if your two rain over this kingdom than your to where it over too they're wear their at too fill it's to sockets with gems till it looks two heavy unless the whether looks worse then reign.

.

Homonyms are sometimes even more trickier than that....

Polish the polish silverware (paul-ish the pole-ish silverware)
Refuse the refuse delivery (ree-fuze the ref-use delivery)
A one minute delay is minute. (A one min-it delay is mine-oot)
He headed the warning and headed out. (he heed-ed the warning and hed-ed out)
