oh those Wild Tchopitchoulas (or however it's spelled).



You're close: it's Tchoupitoulas (pronounced CHAP-ih-TOO-las).


One too few vowels and two too many consonants is close?   :wink:  :wink:


Considering it starts with T-C-H, which is not exactly intuitive, and he got 11 out of 13 letters right overall, yeah, I'm willing to say that's close. It'd get him bounced out of a spelling bee, but slack is being granted here.

Wonder if that word has ever been used in the national spelling bee?

BOS2 Joan Armatrading.  Someone has done a dance version of "Love and Affection" that I keep hearing at the gym but nobody seems to know who it is.


For some reason I decided to look that up, and I'm glad I did.  Who knew not one but two versions were put out by 80's divas: Sheena Easton and Martha Davis (the latter a duet with Sly Stone from the Soul Man* soundtrack).

The one you're probably looking for is available on at least three dance compilations from '02-'03, credited to Mr. Pink/Program.

*one of the most execrable movies of all-time.

Veering off topic, but why is there no (adequately visible) Christian organization disavowing the misguided notions and tactics of Dobson, Shelton, Robertson, et al?  Those of you who are Christians are allowing these monsters to speak for you in the mass media, and it makes it far too easy for us non-Christians to forget about the (hopefully vast majority) more sensible practitioners.  Y'alls need some sort of "Not In Our Name" movement, I dare say.
