Spelling Help
by Bill Schott
G*
I struggled with the spelling of cornucopia. I even asked Amalthaea Goatgod, who can spell anything.
"Ya stat wit con," he said.
"C - O - N?"
"Nahahaha. Con. Seh - oh - eh - un."
"Right. Then O?" I asked.
"Ooo."
"U?"
"Ewe? Whaa?"
"Calm down. I meant the letter U."
"Yehahaha. Ooo."
"Then C - O - P - I - A?"
"Shah."
"Great! Thanks for your help. You're better than spell check."
"He anudda gut?"
"No. It's a program."
"Whine ta oozet?"
"'Cause I thought I'd get the spelling straight from the horse's mouth."
"Huh?"
"Cornucopia is associated with the horn of Amalthaea the Goat. A horn of plenty."
"Oh? Kay. Gutta nutta wood?"
"Papyrus."
" Peh-“
"That's okay. I'm going to get Thoth, ancient Egytian god of writing to help me with this one."
