I have to admit colour spelt "color" sounds weird when I read it. It kind of sounds like "col-lore." Colour seems to fit the pronunciation a lot better.
However the spelling of "organizing" is better than "organising."
I don't really mind the phrase "I could care less." I always thought it implied the person did "care" but came to the point where he's questioning that (usually out of some frustration).
