Geez, I make one of the biggest mistakes on the ‘web EVER and nobody notices or cares to tell me?
The song was not 867-4309. It was 867-5309! And for those born yesterday, this is in reference to my post below, which played off the famous song “Jenny 867-5309” from Toomy Tutone.
My first impulse was to edit the title and act like it never happened. But for that post to sit for a day, maybe 500 people viewing it, and nobody replies… well that’s a pox on all of our houses! (In the end I did change the original post to the correct number, because I’m linking to it and many won’t get the joke) –Mike–
You know, I got the reference and so read it as ‘867-5309’, even though you claim to have put in a ‘4’. Apparently my brain corrected it.
You may have seen this:
Aoccdrnig to rscheearch by the Lngiusiitc Dptanmeret at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn’t mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a total mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe.
The point is that the brain error-corrects automatically.
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it!
So after five years no one has corrected the “Toomy Tutone” in the article?
That’s pretty funny! Don’t know how that got by for so long. Think I should just leave it? Quite the typo! –Mike–
