we were talking about American spelling.
Two theories that I liked
First Webster's name was Miriam - and she hand embroidered the first dictionary, dropping vowels as a way to save time and her eyesight.
The second was that the American's traded the letter 'U' for the statue f liberty. Basically they amassed a large "U mountain" somewhere in Nevada which they then gave to the French (a nation way over quota on use of the letter) in return for a sturdy torch carrier of unusual height.
It was that kind of dinner.
My Etch A Sketch client presented his Urinal ad "Wouldn't you rather be playing with your Etch A Sketch?"
My boss told stories of the Ohio militia
And I tried to explain just why I'd spent two hours this morning stuffing small pictures into balloons (twas a pop the balloon, have an idea exercise)
Good day then
