I saw "All right" yesterday, and I don't remember exactly when to use "all right" and "alright," but I'm not going to look it up, because then I'll just notice when people use it the wrong way. Ignorance is bliss.

It's not alright to mix up alright and all right by saying, for example, that it is all right to mix up alright and all right.

There's a choice between "all ready" and "already": "The fish are all ready already." "Alright" is never all right. "Awhile" and "a while" are sometimes interchangeable.
