"case and point" is incorrect, as is "for all intensive purposes". My post was supposed to be a joke.
For those who don't know, there's a word for these. They're called eggcorns.
(Note that thomblake's comment was a joke too; it had three intentional eggcorns. Edit: Actually three intentional errors, two of which are eggcorns. "Alterior" is just a misspelling.)
All three find themselves on lists of eggcorns.
