Don Martin is Writing for CNN.com

This morning, Miss Edith very much appreciated a headline on CNN.com:

Wife Twacks Intruder with Emeril Pan

Twacks?

"It's like "thwonk," said Notarius, nodding sagely.

The video clip shows a genteel woman in her lovely home telling her story of how she whacked some young thug upside the head, which he doubtless deserved. However, the pan I saw her grab looked like a piece of Calphalon, not Emerilware. (I may be mistaken but I usually have a good eye for this sort of thing.)

I wonder now if they really meant to write "thwacks." But really, who cares. "Twack." Hee hee hee.
