I read this when I was- fourteen? It was, if i recall correctly, in a student textbook, so it must have been around a little while.

Story about a guy who works in a computer lab, and I believe the computer is called WOMAC. The computer starts giving out odd answers, and the narrator finds it is a female tech who is programming the computer to use quotations from literature that are more descriptive or as she states “More exact”. The guy has a brief exchange with the computer, and as he leaves the computer tells him to “Say hello to cousin ollie” who turns out to be Ollie Womac, a ballplayer.

or maybe I just imagined the whole damned thing. I can find NOTHING about it.

From the radio this morning:

“How do you argue with people to whom math is an opinion? “

man attacked by oompa loompas.

“Detectives are looking for two men dressed as Oompa-Loompas who were allegedly responsible for an assault in Norwich.”

now we need midgit control as well as gun control. Wait, that isn’t working out so well either.
