I was going to write a blog post on this myself and found your article while doing research. I’m sorry to point out that I have found a misplaced apostrophe in your otherwise delightful post.

“One week’s vacation, two week’s pay, and three days’ work…”

Surely you mean “two weeks’ pay”?

Feel free to pick though GrammarBlog, http://spandg.blogspot.com, and pick me up on my bad spelling. We’re fairly new on the block and would love some feedback.
