Apostrophe catastrophies [fully sic]

Or should that be apostrophe catastrophe's? Or, perhaps, given my debilitating penchant for picking the snot out of gluggy nosed apostrophe catastrophes, am I actually collecting apostrophe catastrophies?

Today's West Australian newspaper is the culprit. In particular, the Real Estate liftout. One would imagine full page colour spreads are expensive, Webb & Brown-Neaves?

hmm.... Anyway, now that Ms Gillard, a self confessed apostrophe nerd like myself, is on the rise and banging on about her own desires to Artline block out ectopic apostrophes, I feel it's my duty, as an Awwwstraylian, to carry on the good lordless girl's work.

Happy reading!
