I was watching that on the news earlier. I wasn't paying attention, so for a second I thought the announcer actually said numbnut. The look on the kids face was priceless!:smile:
 
:smile: Yeah, I think the kid's reaction made it even funnier, especially his sudden relief at realizing the word WASN'T numbnut! :smile:
 
Numbnut would have been easier to spell, though. I don't know if I would have gotten "numnah".:redface:
 
Picture two cowboys saddling up, and one says to the other, "Hey Bob, hand me that numnah."


Somehow, I can't see it...
