Say What?

You know how this family loves a good word faux pas. Here is today's. Sorry Ann. (I already told her, woke her from a nap to tell her. I said I'm sorry.)

I was watching something about Ted Kennedy, who died Tuesday night, and I must say I did not know what a great man he was. But that is not the story.

Here's the story. A commercial came on for CBS's new season of The Survivor, and the announcer said something like, "This season may have the worst villain in Survivor history." Something like that. Then they showed one participant talking about another participant, and she said, "He just might be the devil incarno."

Yes, I'm quite sure that's what she said, even though CBS has tried to edit the commercial so that the o is not audible. It's the devil incarno.

This may be a long shot but perhaps it wasn't the word "incarno" you heard, maybe the contestant was saying "in Carno" meaning the place where Survivor was filmed.

Is that right? Carno is a place? Guess I didn't hear that part of the commercial. Oh my goodness. Well, my apologies to that lovely young woman, whoever she is, in Carno.
