I just had to inform my son of this. I found a little thing he had written for school where he'd said something to the effect of "we like to play in snow," only he spelled 'we' as wii... Sheesh. We don't even have a Wii.  |

The intentional misspelling of words for marketing purposes has bugged me to no end for years.

Yet more cultural effects on spelling... GAH! That is pretty funny though, Zoomy and... Dane is such a cutie, I would have been cracking up!  |

Heh, after I read his little project I asked him "hey, Dane...how do you spell WE?" His reply: "W-I-I."  |

Heh, and on a related note...he asked what HTFU stands for and we told him Harden The Fuzz Up. He seems to think that's an acceptable explanation.  |

Yeah, that stuff really bugs me, too. There is a restaurant about 45 minutes from us called Kuntry Kubbard.  |
