A sports writer we know felt the wrath of angry Little League baseball
mothers when he slipped on his keyboard and typed "Pee Pee League" for "Pee
Wee League."

Worse, in some ways, was the wrath of the reporter who called in a story and
the person on the other end of the line, typing as the reporter talked,
wrote "youth in Asia" throughout a feature on mercy killings.
