I can see 2 easy ways out: 1) Enclose the string in double quotes, so you can use apostrophes inside. example: "BRIAN'S MOTHER". 2)Use the "\" escape character to escape the apostrophe. example: "BRIAN\'S MOTHER". I very much prefer the second method, since the it doesn't matter whether you enclose it in double quotes or single quotes, it'll work fine.
