Rumor has it that Joe R. may have mentioned these words:

An old adage brought new again... "Don't believe everything you read on 
Google." I used it once to find out how to spell Jill Hennessy's name -- 
Last time I checked, there are /more/ hits on "Hennessey" than the former, 
yet the former is correct.

"Just because you can't spell, doesn't mean you can't get on the Internet." 
You can quote me... ;-)
