Wait Wait Don't Tell Me

"Wait Wait Don't Tell Me" is a weekly news quiz show on public radio. It airs every Saturday at around noon (11?). Every now and then, I catch it, usually in the midst of a commute. It's great fun. The commentators ("players") are really funny. Paula Poundstone's one, sometimes Mo Rocca (sp?) is there, and I think also the guy that speaks on those old Motel Six commercials ("We'll leave the light on fer ya"). So is the host himself, is it Peter Sagel (sp?)?

Anyways, one little snippet I caught was this. In Texas, a judge banned a specific book because he considered it immoral. Not particularly surprising. But guess what the book was?

MIRIAM WEBSTER'S DICTIONARY!!!

Hahaha! No wonder Dubbayah's so oft tongue-tied! He's trying to speak right and moral and goodly true!
