You say potato, I say pah-tah-to.

Linguist friend is visiting and today we were in the car on the way to a booksale (naturally) when he noticed the vanity plate on the car in front of us.

"A href," he read aloud.

"Yeah," I said, "that's a blog thing. It's part of the code you type when you want to link to somebody. The person in the car must be a blogger, or at least somebody who knows HTML."

"Oh," he said. "Looked like Old High German to me."

Because of a recent ton of spam and weird insulting comments from a brand-new poster, I'm putting in comment moderation for a bit. I'm planning to do comment moderation "Ms. Kitty Style," as in, with a very light touch and kicking only off-topic and unreasonably insulting posts.
