BringHam Young - definitely not a Jewish school.  Is that Brigham Young's alter ego that allows its teams to play on Sundays?

I see it as a WASPy school that really likes the jamon iberico it sampled in its intensive three-month study abroad in Madrid which really opened the doors of perception to foreign cultures and gave an appreciation to, like, the wider world and stuff.

THAT'S a bit embarrassing!

I can see how this was missed by whomever checked the artwork.  I had to read it a couple of times to catch the error even with the knowledge that something was wrong.  My mind refused to read anything but Brigham Young.

Never underestimate the value of a good proofreader.  ;D

I would say that trumps Standford on the Utah big screen.


Not wholly apropos of anything, but... - Mick - 11-13-2013

When my oldest son turned three, I ordered him a cake with "Happy Birthday Jeffrey" on it, spelled out in block letters  on the order form.

When I went to pick up the cake, it said "Happy Birthday, Jeffery."  I pointed out the error to the baker, and she looked at the juxtaposed letters for a long time.  Finally, she said, "Well, it's normally spelled "E-R-Y."  I said, "thanks for that, but since it's too late to change the spelling of his name, could you just redo the spelling of his name on the cake?"
