[Ads-l] equine eggcorn

[James Landau]

Somewhat off topic for "horse bath":  a stockbroker told me that a narrow difference between bid and ask prices is a "wife's spread" but a wide difference is a "whore's spread"
Also a new computer proverb:  Debugging is like being in a mystery story where you are the murderer.
