The all too frequent (apparent)confusion between "loose" and "lose" just kills me when I see it.I estimate that Freepers get that one right maybe 10 percent of the time.

The all too frequent (apparent)confusion between "loose" and "lose" just kills me when I see it. A good mnemonic is "'Loose shoes'; lose job".
