With all this talk of Texas craziness and "blue laws," I thought it might
be pertinent to point out a story in today's paper (Roanoke Times; 17th
Jan. 1997) wherein a town in Texas has passed an ordinance outlawing
"hello" as the official form of greeting and replacing it with "heaven-o"
instead. The reason? The word "hello" contains the word "hell..."
Cheers,
Paul.
