Gotcha. Irony is harder to convey via forum than I thought.

MARTEN: That's it, Pintsize, into the fridge you go.
DORA: Again? What did he do now?
MOMO: He took pictures underneath my skirt and posted them on the web, with my full name and IP address. Now half the internet is sending me virus-infected furry porn.

Back in the days when people bought records, the Milwaukee paper used to run a top-ten chart labeled "MILWAUKEE'S HIT PARADE." Then they got a new computer programmed to block out naughty words.

The chart started appearing as "MILWAUKEE HIT PARADE."
Title: Re: QC Captions Vol. 94 HOLIDAY EDITION

It has to be the most common typo in the print communications industry, but for me the funniest example was when our local congressman sent a press release expressing his hope Congress could "put (the current Washington tempest-in-a-toilet bowl) behind us and get on with the pubic business."

But my paper's first spellcheck program, unfamiliar with the word "jacuzzi," automatically corrected a news brief to say the local chapter of Catholic Adult Singles was planning a "Swim and Jackass Party." Yes, the editor (ironically, she was our most fastidious proofreader) had assumed "search and replace" would do its job the way she thought it should be done.

And before I come off as too self-righteous, all of my howlers were of the type that couldn't be blamed on the technology. Fortunately, I had the ideal backup: A composing-room crew consisting of ladies with dirty minds.

Steve: Last night we said a great many things. You said I was to do the thinking for both of us. Well, I've done a lot of it since then, and it all adds up to one thing: you're getting on that plane with Victor where you belong.
Tortura: But, Steven, no, I... I...
Steve: Now, you've got to listen to me! You have any idea what you'd have to look forward to if you stayed here? Nine chances out of ten, we'd both wind up in a concentration camp. Isn't that true, Louie?
Captain Renault (off camera): I'm afraid Major Strasser would insist.
Tortura: You're saying this only to make me go.
Steve: I'm saying it because it's true. Inside of us, we both know you belong with Victor. You're part of his work, the thing that keeps him going. If that plane leaves the ground and you're not with him, you'll regret it. Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life.
Tortura: But what about us?
Steve: We'll always have Paris. We didn't have, we, we lost it until you came to Casablanca. We got it back last night.
Tortura: When I said I would never leave you.
Steve: And you never will. But I've got a job to do, too. Where I'm going, you can't follow. What I've got to do, you can't be any part of. Tortura, I'm no good at being noble, but it doesn't take much to see that the problems of three little people don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world. Someday you'll understand that.
[Tortura lowers her head and begins to cry]
Steve: Now, now...
[Steve gently places his hand under her chin and raises it so their eyes meet]
