Blending under pressure

[Wilson Gray]

Heard on the Judge Maria Lopez show:

"She's always shown a lot of _enemyosity_ toward me." The -my- was
pronounced "my."

-Wilson
--
Everybody says, "How hard it is that we have to die"---a strange
complaint to come from the mouths of people who have had to live.
-----
Whoever has lived long enough to find out what life is knows how deep
a debt of gratitude we owe to Adam, the first great benefactor of our
race. He brought death into the world.

--Sam Clemens
