Well that's what happens when you have an adult do a child's job...

Coming to NBC this Fall: Are you Smarter than a WashPost Editor?

@Wiz - NBC? Please. We all know that show is already being secretly planned at Fox

that's awesome. sounds like spell check needs an extra-vigilant, prepubescent setting for the time of the year when stories about the national spelling be comes around.

as does dcist! clearly not my fault. :) whoops - that would be "bee."

As an aside, is referring to someone as Kim when their name is actually Yim actually a misspelling? Isn't it more like racism?

I'd really like to point that out.

Which didn't transcribe into the little box.

I still claim credit.
