Pie Chart Village, FL
- USA Today today announced they have
sought a court injunction to prevent Duke University
basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski from
spelling his name using his current arrangement of consonants
and vowels in a specific and confusing order. "This
is long overdue," said USA Today spokesman Mike
Smith. "Coach K's bellig--, uhh, I mean, 'meany,
sour,' attitude regarding the spelling of his name is
no longer suffic--, uhh, I mean 'enough' reason to keep
using this dumb collection of letters from the alphabet
in what is clearly a random and dopey order." Smith
said the new spelling, "Sheshefski," is already
a compromise position sought by the newspaper through
arbitration with Webster's Dictionary,
the Polish Consulate, and the Duke University English
Department. "He can still go by 'Coach K' though,
that's fine, it's a great, nice and simple nickname
that doesn't tax any of our readers," said Smith.
When it was pointed out that with the new USA Today
spelling, 'Sheshefski,' Krzyzewski would no longer have
an actual 'K' at the beginning of his name on which
to base the nickname 'Coach K,' Smith grabbed his forehead
tightly with both hands and then asked for a glass of
water and some Excedrin. Smith then excused himself,
stating he was on a tight deadline to go design a front
page graphic of a picture of a small town square with
nine hidden squirrels in it. Can YOU
find them?
