When I was a kid, maybe 13 or so, I was an avid reader. I checked out a book about or maybe titled "Mrs Malaprop" and I found it hilarious, savoring those silly substitutions. Just a few years ago, I found the book at a library again, skimmed through it, and wondered what I found so clever and funny. Oh well, I guess the world is not as funny as it once was. (But I do love malapropisms, just not that goofy book full of them.)
