Oh, no, not at all! :) This is the story of Little Red Riding Hood, every
word of which has been approved by the spell-checker on my word-processer.
I'd love to see what a grammar-checker had to say about it! It starts off:
LADLE RAT ROTTING HUT
Ounce pawn thyme dare vast a ladle gull hew lift inner ladle
cordage honor itch over dirk fairest. Tea ladle gull's murder maid hair a
rat cluck wit a hut, sew tea ladle gull vast culled 'Ladle Rat Rotting
Hut'...
(The confused may find it becomes clearer with reading aloud.) ;)
