Hello World,
To, Too, and Two are different words that are NOT interchangeable. Same goes for There, Their, and They’re. Let’s not forget about Your and You’re. I can’t take it anymore! Doesn’t anyone pay attention in English class? I have made it very easy for you. Read it, learn it, live it. Thank you.
To, too, two
To usually refers to direction (We are moving TO Dallas) or used with the infinitive form of verbs (TO run, TO go, TO laugh).
Too means also (I like snow, TOO) and to an extensive degree (He has TOO many hats).
Two is the number after one.
There, Their, They’re
There is a location (I live over THERE).
Their is possessive (I love THEIR dog).
“They’re” is the contraction of They Are (THEY'RE already there).
Your and You’re
Your is a possessive pronoun (I like YOUR haircut).
You’re is the contraction of You Are (YOU'RE annoying me).

Poor Dead Skunk
Hello World!
I am awakened in the middle of the night by the stink of skunk. This is the second time in the last few weeks. My entire bedroom smells rancid. I somehow get back to sleep. I walk out my door this morning and there is a dead skunk at the bottom of my steps! He looked so peaceful - no injury or sign of fighting or anything. The smell is horrendous! I call my neighbor, Larry, who comes over and cleans it up for me, but he said he would not dig a hole. I am not sure exactly what is going to happen to the little fellow at this point. However, my bedroom and sunporch smell pretty bad. My car stinks to the high heaven!!
I have no idea what happened to this poor skunk. It's like he was trying to get to my door for help and didn't quite make it. I am so sad about this. Larry thinks he might have eaten something poisonous or was just really old. Either way, who finds dead animals right at their doorstep? I started feeling guilty like I should have went to check on him as soon as I smelled it in the middle of the night. But what could I have done if he was in need of help? Call Skunk 911? There is nothing I could have done anyway and who is going to head in the direction of skunk smell? No one. Anyone with any sense would go in the opposite direction. Am I right?
Poor little skunk.
