Quote# 63242

At his urging, the Kleberg County commissioners on Monday unanimously designated "heaven-o" as the county's official greeting. The reason: "hello" contains the word "hell."

"When you go to school and church, they tell you 'hell' is negative and 'heaven' is positive,'" said the 56-year-old Canales, who owns the Kingsville Flea Market. "I think it's time that we set a new precedent, to tell our kids that we are positive adults."

While you're at it you should change your name, Canales. There's the word "anal" in there.

Why not go all the way and just change it to "PRAIZE JEBUS-O!"?

Is... is this a joke? I've seen this very idea presented as a joke before. If it's not this time... wow. The people involved fail to grasp how words work.

As I understand it, "hello" is a corrupted form of the phrase "health to you", in the same way that "goodbye" derives from "god be with you" and the epithet "bloody" from the oath "by our Lady".

The point is that language in general, and English in particular, is infinitely adaptable. Sort of the exact opposite of idiots like this guy.

Other moronic things for fundies with too much time on their hands:

(a) Ban imports from Finland, because its capital is Helsinki.

(b) Boycott Hellman's mayonnaise

(c) Demand printers stop using the Helvetica font.

(d) Write the FAA insisting they ban helicopters unless they call them "heavenicopters".

Feel free to add to the list ...

Maybe they can join with PETA, and give some sea kittens a warm heaven-o.

...

after considering this, I'm glad.
really, wouldn't you rather them advertise their crazy? instead of accidentally getting to close, now you get fair warning from the first word out of their mouths.

it's like they all wear a "warning: I'm fucking nuts" sign around their necks.
