"Kokomo" ghoS tlhIngan Hol
When Lawrence and I got together briefly a couple of weekends ago my
parents joined him and my family for lunch. My mother is a member of
a group of writers, and submitted a short piece to the local newspaper
about his visit. The following item appeared in the paper's online
mailing list today.

I had someone check a physical copy of the paper; unfortunately, the
misspelled "Klington" does appear in print (as does "Rayn's" instead
of "Ryan's", which is a local restaurant and really ought to have been
spotted and corrected instantly).
wejpuH -- they chose to print it in the April 1 edition. But now I
have reason to believe they'll print my qepHom announcement instead of
simply laughing at it...
