Yes, I can. I have actually seen this before and love this!!! It is amazing how the mind reacts to words.

Must have taken you forever to type this with that many errors!

Actually, I just copied it and pasted it from another website. I've seen this before and thought it would be cute to post.

That is funny I didn't notice they were all mixed up till I came to "Cmabrigde" and thought it was a typo.

I feel a little dyslexic sometimes, I tend to write words with the second or even last letter first, maybe my hand is slower than my brain and I've come to those letters in my mind before I get it on the paper.
