Foot or feet?
Hello everyone, I was recently listening to the song Shame by Robbie Williams and one of the verses says the following:
...And with your poster thirty foot high at the back of Toys R Us
Now we can put it down to circumstance...
Would anyone tell why he says thirty foot high instead of thirty feet high?

My fist pizza got burn
I recently moved to Louisville for a couples of months to enjoy my vacations and also to get to know some laboratories of the department of chemical engineering at University of Louisville as I´m planning to study a PhD here.
I rented a room close to the campus, and the fist week I went to a nerby Kroger to buy some food. When I was there I decided to buy a frozen pizza for I remembered I had been provided with an oven to cook. I chose one that came with an oven proof pan as I didn´t have any kitchen utensils.
I preheated the oven at 400oF as read in the cooking instructions and I was watching frequently the oven the first 10 minutes. I also started the timer of my watch to take control of the time. After that I went to the living room and started doing something on the computer which took my mind off the pizza. Later, I suddently remembered that I was cooking something in the oven and looked at my watch and thanks God it was one minute for the pizza to be ready. I stood up and headed for the kitchen to see how was going all and as I opened the oven´s door there was a huge cloud of smoke coming out of it.
I immediately tried to take out the pepperoni pizza and all the topping was gone to the floor and some fell on my hand and I got burn.
The fire alarm detected the smoke and went on. I was very scaried and freak out by this, since I didnt know how to proceed in that circumstance and never thought it was such a big deal to burn food.
Finally a man came over to see what had happened and realized that it was just a pizza and told me to open the windows and the door to help the smoke go and that the fire alarm stoped.
Any correction will be appreciated and if you find the way a write weird or that a native speaker of english would never say that let me know too.
Thanks!
