I ran aspell through the files and found below to be typos while manually filtering the aspell output. I have classified it into sections since I am not sure if code comments are worth fixing and added relevant files where they are present. I am tagging the issue for PyCon US dev sprints. Please don't make a PR for this if you have already contributed a PR.

Dustin, thank you for both patches.  Some people are not annoyed by minor typos.  I am one who is.  I hope you are enjoying and learning from the sprint.
