Gag Me With a Spoonerism

[Cierlast]

I don't know if you guys like this stuff, but I find it amusing; enjoy.

The following by Richard Lederer

The Reverend William Archibald Spooner entered the earthly stage near London on July 22, 1844, born with a silver spoonerism in his mouth. He set out to be a bird-watcher but ended up instead as a word-botcher. As the legend proclaims, he tended to reverse letters and syllables to produce many tips of the slung.

When I am traveling out to the cabin, I most always lose the regular radio stations except for WPR (Wisconsin Public Radio).
So for years now it has become a nice addiction and learning experience. It is about a 6 hour drive so about half of it is WPR.
At first I disliked it and thought much of it was 'korny', but with time I actually look forward to the treat. They have a lot of neat programs that test your wit and I enjoy that, along with interesting guests.
I am sure most states have their own public radio broadcasting and you probably know of a few provincial broadcasts that would be comparable.
Better than listening to all the Liberal/Conservative station drivel that passes for intellect today; cripes it makes my ears bleed. I like politics, but that just isn't it.
Give a look around and I bet you find some great stuff out your way if you haven't already.

Here is a link to WPR:

Only one radio station we can get..,CBC.. Not the most accurate or the most unbiased of news services. However, some friends just got satellite radio and they are very happy. Look to me to go that route in the very near future.
