   My friend Doug Letourneau is helping his dad out this week at his glass   
   etching business. A woman and her boyfriend come up and ask Doug to etch the   
   word Loser on a beer mug. The woman spells it Loosar. Doug suggests that it   
   is spelled Loser. She tells him that she knows how to spell it. He tells her   
   if she wants he will spell it her way, but she can't bring it back.   
      
   Her boyfriend suggests that the word is spelled Loser. She gets angry and   
   says I know how to spell it, I'm the one with a College Education.   
      
   To ensure that his kids do not go there,  Doug asks her where she went to   
   college.She tells him.   
      
   Then she sees some people nearby and asks them how to spell Loosar. A young   
   girl tells her L O S E R - and adds "And I'm only in high school."
