Esprit du Daily Cal at its best...
\_ what? DailyCal uses ASP?
\_ no, they just use that extension so it looks like they have
money to afford ms software.
\_ that's not as cool as when the daily cal printed a correction
for mislabeling a 10 inch pizza special as a penis.
but this was years ago, i think the daily cal had a better
sense of humor then and now they feel picked on. does anyone
remember the classified ad that ran for YEARS in the daily
cal from the guy in the wheelchair seeking sweaty muscle
play? - danh
\_ The pizza/penis incident was actually a paid advertisement --
both the original and the correction. Just a really cute
publicity stunt by Blondies from 1990. I have a copy from
microfiche lying around my archives, you're welcome to
it. The above, on the other hand, was a genuine fuckup. By
the "Review" section monkeys, of all people. _I_'m amused =)

\_ This sounds like you were on DC staff, alexf. Why am I
not surprised...
\_ No I wasn't. Care to explain? -alexf
\_ Why was this such a fuckup? Seems to be just a careless
editing/typing error.
\_ Well, it shows a huge misunderstanding of history
and literature. Sort of like claiming that Captain
Ahab freed the slaves or something. Maybe a
science or engineering major wouldn't understand.
Anyone who writes for the Daily Cal should not
get their facts this confused. |
