Good thoughts for Leo

[scaeagles]

I had to resurrect this thread to talk about the mother of all typos I made in a work related email.

I basically telecommute as an independant contractor to a place in Sunnyvale, CA, that has a large population of Asians who are ESL. A person over there I work with told me this morning about what happened last week.

I sent an email out last Monday, when I was on LOTS of drugs, which included this phrase - "As Sheldon and Ron were discussing prior to my leave....". Well, when I typed "discussing", I transposed the S's and C's, and typed "dicsuccing".

Well, this email turned up in a meeting over there where an ESL Asian was reading it. She read it as "As Sheldon and Ron were dick sucking prior to my leave....". She then paused and said "What is the word dick sucking? I do not know it."

It was all everyone else could do not to just die laughing.

Fortunately, they all know me and no one took offense. I have never had a typo turn out so funny.
