Because of Chief Wounded Wiener, I learned something today
So do you ever think you know something, then find out you never knew it? I was posting a link to Chief Wounded Wiener's blog and when it didn't work, I checked the spelling. "Wiener" is spelled with an ie not an ei. Being the grammar snob that I am, I looked it up (I know, your thinking "how do you find the word wiener?" on the internet of course - oscarmeyer.com). sure enough, ie is correct. It just looks wrong. So something I thought I knew for sure, I never really ever knew. And I didn't even know that I didn't know. Happy Friday.

Drunk..you should so become a hasher if you like to drink. Man we have some great times.
Uh, ever try that whole "I before E except after C, or as in eigh as in neighbor and weigh?"
Just a thought.....

damn Charly Brown and Snoopy for getting that damn ie before e song stuck in my head.
Charlie Brown and Snoopy are comic strip characters, not hashers, DBD. He's referring to a song in one of their TV specials.
Yep I just recently found out how to spell Soeul. I mean Seoul.

“i” before “e” except after “c” and when sounding like “eigh” as in “neighbor” and “weigh” and on weekends and holidays and all through out may and you’ll never get it right, no matter what you say!
