No matter how many years I;ve been typing, I hit the damn semi-colon instead of a single quote mark every time! This is serious business.

Maybe it is because you are looking for the wrong thing. You should be looking for an apostrophe.  ::)  ;D

Am I the only person who thought this thread was going to be about a malfunctioning musical instrument? Perhaps a broken midi cable.

As soon as someone explains to me the difference between a semi-colon and the full on colon I'll be well on my way. The only thing I know about a colon is the probe I got when I turned 50  :o

Well, with common screenings like that probe that can detect colon cancer in its early stages, fewer people are requiring surgery that results in semicolons.  That's my guess as to why you may not be familiar with the difference.  ;)
