JayT Posted May 31, 2008 Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 A cute and funny news item today announced that 13 year old Sameer Mishra won the Scripp's National Spelling Bee. On his way to the title he was asked to spell "numnah." You should have seen the puzzled expression on his face as he looked up and cautiously said "numb nuts?" (and the audience did burst into laughter). You know the kid had heard the phrase before, but was now wondering if he was actually expected to spell it out. Fortunately, decorum prevailed and he went on to win the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
