If these machines could make my nose bigger, I'd buy two.

Dr. Colin Sullivan invented the CPAP---and he did use a vacuum in reverse on that very first prototype!
Dr. Sullivan...the father of cpap? Might one then refer to him as "Pappy Cpap"?

Those guys in the picture aren't exactly "Road Scholars" from Oxford! Ironic which word they just so happened to misspell. Doesn't make me feel quite so bad for all my own misspellings!
Time to get the road "vacume" out for those two transposed letters!
P.S. I just had to go back and edit mispell so that it was spelled correctly. Sheesh! See what I mean? I better get a job with that road crew!

Clownshow,
There was a study that showed as long as you had the first and last letters of a word placed correctly, a person would be able to read the intent of a sentence of with completely incorrect spelling. So no worries mate.

I have started calling mine "Herman". This came from the TV show "The Munsters". Mine sort of reminds me of Herman, kind of big and dumb , but not quite as ugly
