I Think You Mythspelled That Word...

Deb likes to watch television with captions.

aequitaslevitas just reported - on account of me saying my ability to spell was ded - that whoever did the captions for the show they watched on the Travel channel about Atlantis was either very tired (my personal excuse) or very incompetent.

For example:

"the volcano erupted violently and covered the island in ash and pumas"

"ash and pumas" - used multiple times throughout the program

"the island of Conosos" - used a couple times, then corrected to Knossos

"they were worshippers of the sea god, Pasidon"

Musikfest Started Without Me!

Oy.

The worst part of it is that I missed the Philadelphia Funk Authority

Check out some of the rest of the lineup - this year they brought in lots of small-time acts no one has ever heard of, such as Boston, Jethro Tull, Avril Lavigne, Earth, Wind & Fire, Live, Collective Soul, Kool & the Gang, Stone Nipple Chickens Temple Pilots, Lonestar, Diamond Rio, Poison, John Fogerty... jeez, gotta catch my breath here... Dennis DeYoung, Roseanne Cash, 38 Special, John Gorka, Edwin McCain, Roomful of Blues, Seamus Kennedy, Sligo Rags, Brother, Finn's Fury, Tempest, Tanglefoot, Jeffrey Gaines, and a... ahem... few others.

Not sure which days I'll be down there. Friday is a definite, as that's Poetry Night at the Moravian Book Shop.
