I Me Mine
Sick of reading my writing about myself? Surf over here to listen to me talk about myself for a while! The link takes you to a podcast about podcasts--how postmodern is that?--on which I am, of course, discussing The Princeton Review Vocabulary Minute, which I create. The podcast is called The Variety Show.
PS A CD of vocabulary songs to the first person who points out the vocabulary error I make in the interview. Hint: I was only off by one letter.

Brains--Fine guesses all, but not the answer the judges are looking for. I'll send you a CD all the same if you like, because they are cheap and you are good folks.

Hmmm, could it be "It publishes every other Monday"?

Michele--Certainly the grammar there is dubious, but I'm thinking specifically of a word I misused, thinking that its meaning was in fact that of a word that can be formed by changing only one letter (hint: it's a vowel) in the misused word.
I will admit that this is a tough challenge because the misused word isn't a complete malapropism--in context one can make sense of it and perhaps, if one is stubborn enough, argue that no error was made. However, I know that it's not the word I was trying to say and I am not so stubborn--I think the word was misused.
