Texas county votes "hell" out of hello

KINGSVILLE, Texas (Reuter) --

Heaven-o, how are you?

It may take some getting used to, but Kleberg County commissioners have thrown their support behind a local man's campaign to take the "hell" out of hello.

County Judge Pete De La Garza said Wednesday that the commissioners voted unanimously for a resolution urging the use of "heaven-o" instead of hello in greetings.

"Is everybody using it? The answer is of course, no. It is a very new thing and everybody's a little apprehensive," De La Garza told Reuters. "I suppose it's like everything else, once you get adjusted to it, you might start using it."

The idea was spawned by flea market operator Leonoso Canales, who told the San Antonio Express-News, "I see hell in hello. It's disguised by the o, but once you see it, it will slap you in the face."

Texans, is this true?

Gotta be the water.    :thatsright:
“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

Just about the dumbest thing I've heard all week.
"The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of 'liberalism,' they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened." --Norman Thomas, 1944

yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery - today is a gift- that's why it's called the "present"
