"too".

D'oh!

As long as we're drifting way off-topic (which is a fun thing to do
sometimes, for a short while):

"you're" means "you are", as in "You're driving too fast".
"your" means "being possessed by you", as in "Your car is going off a
cliff, with us in it. Aeieieie!"

"it's" means "it is", as in "It's time to be anal, like Kent is being now."
"its" means "being possessed by it", as in "Its odor was somewhat
'anal', if you know what I mean."

"two" means the number just prior to five ("three, Sire!"); oh, yes,
prior to three.
"too" means "also" or "overly much", as in "Kent's being too picky. He's
ugly, too."
"to" is used in just about all other cases, as in "Are you going to the
movie? Or are you going to be a stay-at-home stick-in-the-mud?"

I think that about covers my off-topic holier-than-thou rant. (But
remember, I can't code my way out of a BASIC goto loop.)
