Justin wins

Congrats to Justin, he figured it out. No idea how, except that he's a genius. I got that little ditty as part of a session on literacy. That, supposedly, is what it's like to be illiterate. A bunch of words that don't seem to go together. But when you read it aloud (redid allowed), you can hear "Twas the Night Before Christmas." When illiterate people have something read to them, they comprehend it. But when they read it silently themselves, as Justin stated, it's gibberish.

Now for the prize--you didn't give me enough time to think of what it would be. You figured out the problem too fast! So we'll have to discuss your compensation later.

I've been having a problem lately with writing "too". I always spell it wrong when I'm zipping away on the keyboard. With only one 'o'. I've caught most of them, but forgive me if any entries or emails have contained an incorrect "too" lately. It's just a phase I'm sure.
