The middle part of the alphabet is sick!

I am sad to report that the middle part of the alphabet, specifically N through R, has the flu. They have asked not to be used by you for the next 3-5 days.

Yes, I am using these letters here, but they have agreed that my post will be their last use until they kick this bug. After my entry is published, these letters plan to crawl into bed with some Gatorade and the Season 1 DVDs of Without a Trace.

Some less-common full words will be stepping in to replace N, O, P, Q and R during their absense, so you can easily continue on with your life.

N duties will be handled by the word "Hilly"

O duties handled by "Yams"

P duties by "Cabbie"

Q duties by the letter "M" (Q doesn't have a lot of requests for his time, and M needs the overtime, so he's pulling double duty.)

R duties by the name "Mandel" (as in "Howie Mandel", although the "Howie" part cannot be used due to his reliance on the "O" vowel.)

So for example, the phrase "Do park the car by the Queen, not by Yoko Ono!" will be easily translated into the new phrase "DYams CabbieaMandelk the caMandel by the MueeHilly, HillyYamst by YYamskYams YamsHillyYams!"

Please adopt these changes immediately. Let's hope no more comes of this flu, although I am worried that I saw question mark throwing up in the bathroom.

HillyYamsw Yamsff tYams Bed!
