Milosevic–check; Kaczynski–check; silver–whoops!

You may have correctly spelled Milosevic and Kaczynski, but there was a typo that led to “silver” being run as “sliver” (as in “sterling sliver fish forks”).

I tried to look up the ’59 Edsel grill to see what was so nasty, but all I could find is a description that said “Edsel” was spelled out. I assume you were alluding to something more offensive than that.–but what?

(Richard H. Levey replies: The grillwork of the Edsel is decidedly suggestive. Google’s image directory may have an appropriately inappropriate image.)

OK — you ought to be shot and hung for that “border collyer” pun.
