wow, the things you suddenly realize
Mar. 17th, 2006 09:53 pmwhile chatting with someone online, I had an epiphany...
he asked:
pulchiella or punchinella?
I noted:
it's written pulchinella, but you know him as Punch and it's pronounced "punchinella"
it's those weird italian spellings
He was deformed, but the root of his name is pulcher, for beautiful. I think it was a play on words.
I had never realized that until I typed it. It's such a funny joke.
DOH
