Are you Miss Herman, my first grade teacher? She really enjoyed making fun of my dyslexia. And it seems you do too.

Oh no! If I did, I certainly didn't mean to. Caudal is a widely used medical term, and I was interested to see the context...

That said, my best friend for nearly 45 years is slightly dyslexic (he and I went in the Navy together) and we would both joke about his mild dyslexia, which was occasionally humorous to both of us. (Driving down the road, he would say "Take a left!" to which I would quickly say "Left, or the other Left?" and he would blurt out "The other Left! THE OTHER LEFT!" and I would take a right...:)

We went to see one of the Naked Gun movies some years ago in the theater, and they have this scene at the beginning of the movie:

We both burst our guts laughing, and not another person in that theater even giggled...we still laugh today when sitting around telling old-time stories...:)

Anyway, if I offended, that was not my intent at all!
