My spell checker just suggested "coinage" for "Colnago."

Years ago in a past life, I was writing an emergency evacuation plan. It included a sentence that began "After evacuating onto the helipad..."

I don't know how I typed it, but the spell check auto-replaced my mis-spelled word with "ejaculating". I turned a few shades of red when the draft was distributed. But the overnight urgent care team liked the concept (one of whom was later caught doing just that with one of the nurses).

Oh well...

I always get a kick out of some of the words suggested to replace names - sometimes they can be pretty fitting, or at least funny.

Good to know the urgent care team followed directions to the letter...

Funny how Pelosi and Obama are always noted "AS WRONG"

I laughed at the thought of some person "evacuating" on the heli pad...
Wonder what that "says" about me.

Thanks I needed the grin this morning.
