argh
just got my typing back, and the pool typist has put "security of kenya" everywhere that it should say "security of tenure". now, i know that not everybody is a property lawyer, and she can't possibly be expected to know what this means. but come on... when you are talking about leases and renewal rights and court proceedings, you've got to know that the word you don't know isn't fucking "kenya", right?

Ctrl F works as a 'find' shortcut in Internet Explorer.
Any idea what it is if you're on Safari?

If that doesn't get me a leave-the-Internet comment, nothing will

Ctrl-F
Find and replace all 'kenya' with 'tenure'.
Slap the typist.

Too slow, although the typist slapping part does have a nice "'50's post lunch with too many cocktails feel"

This has made me do a real-life lol.
I had a member of staff who once took an address down from a chap in Edinburgh who gave his postcode using the phonetic alphabet.

This witless cretin decided that on the basis of the information supplied, that our customer lived at the 'Echo Hotel'.

Ha ha ha ha! brilliant
Welcome to the Echo Hotel
Looks like Heaven but could be Hell
Where pleasant screams transform to yells
And every suite casts its own spell
