Yesterday I ate a hot dog I really shouldn't have. There were two of them, one from a brand-new package and one from a package that had been there a while. They were the same brand, but they weren't the same color, and they didn't taste the same. My friend Ted, in the same position, would have called up several local friends to make sure they knew what to tell the paramedics in case of emergency, but I just felt a little sheepish.

As far as I can tell I wasn't adversely affected, until this morning, when I ran across this list of ways people misspelled Britney Spears to Google, all of which got picked up and dusted off by its spelling correction widgetry. "Gritney Spears" is my favorite, but "Brinie Spears" is a close second. I laughed and laughed, until all of a sudden I wondered if the hot dog might have done more damage than I realized. 09:52AM «
