Tim Warner the comedian,
Tim Warner the professor of vascular inflammation, or
Tim Warner the cartoonist are unhappy about all the cable queries they now get, or if they're happy about their new-found fame?! :)

2) Just today I cancelled one of my car rental reservations that I had with Budget. The automated email they sent to me had this as the first sentence:
You reservation was cancelled.

Thanks for those, Tim!
I think a hilarious source of funny mistakes is the website
www.engrish.com ... especially look at their "Most Popular" section...

Here are a few funny ones!

The "bargain" item is not always the best...!
Poor Wang!
The "burned mutton" may be the most enticing meal here! :)
Best wishes!
