Grammatical Errors of the Day

"'The inspector noted that he was very impressed with the operations of the home and facility itself,' explains Cindy."
Does this bother anyone else?  How and/or why would the inspector note he was impressed?  Wouldn't he note the excellent operations, not his impression?  Anyway, it bothers me.

"The dishwasher will be ran every Tues. and Wed."
It should read, "will be run".  This is hanging up in the kitchen at work.

I am a tad clueless sometimes on verb conjugations (especially lay and lie), so I double checked the conjugation of run (on the interwebz, of course) and the sign is wrong.  Stay tuned for more!
