Ah, well, we have no problem understanding you, Pam, so what does that say about your friends? hahahahaha

I cannot prove or disprove that, so will take your word for it.

Of course, if you want to chat live, Yahoo Messenger has an excellent voice call feature if you have a microphone hooked up to your PC. Free anywhere in the world and sounds clearer than a phone call. It's great.

What does an insomniac dyslexic agnostic do?

Lies awake all night wondering if there really is a dog.

i got it.

@wandersmann: *silly giggle*

That was funny

The type of speech error we're talking about here is called a "spoonerism" from the Rev. Spooner (C. of E., I think), who was extremely prone to them. If they are relatively rare, as I must assume that most of ours are, I would say that it's probably some sort of brain glitch, as can happen in a computer ... a little error without a cause, as it were. In the case of the Rev. Spooner, I would suspect a sort of aphasia, and it doesn't go away ... he was probably not wired up quite normally. Not enought to prevent him from functioning, because he probably didn't think in spoonerisms, but in the thought coming through the speech centers, things can get a bit muddled.

I've been a apoonerism person all my life ... it doesn't come out unless I want it to, but my mind is always spoonerising things on a sort of parallel track. It's fun.

Showing my age here ... I remember to this day a Jack Benny radio show in which Mary Livingston asked for a "chiss sweese sandwich". If you want any newer stuff, see if you can find any of Benny Hill's routines where he uses spoonerisms.

I really don't remember.

After a good nights sleep and 7 cups of coffee, I see everything is nack to bormal. It's gonna be a dood gay!

My favorite thing is malapropisms.

I wish I could remember what comedian it was who used to use malapropisms in their routine. It was funny as could be. Anybody remember?

victor borgia maybe.

I think I am thinking about Yogi Berra. He was famous for his malapropisms.

Here's something for everyone:

Remember the story of Prinderella and the Since? It begins "Here is a story that will make your cresh fleep. It will give you poose gimples. Think of a poor little glip of a sirl, prery vitty, who, because she had two sisty uglers, had to flop the more and do all the other chasty nores, while her soamly histers went to a drancy-bess fall. Wasn’t that a shirty dame?".

Malapropisms can get you in trouble.

The above I posted, is, of course, example of Spoonerisms. Have discovered that George Bush and George W. Bush have books written about the malapropisms they were heard to utter during tenure.
