Just a little thing, right?

Last week I called Prudential, checking on my policy, the death benefit, the beneficiaries, etc. So I needed to update the list of my beneficiaries because only three were listed. The little man sent me a form.

On the form, my name appears as policy holder. The last name is spelled correctly. The beneficiaries listed do not enjoy the luxury of that. I mean, I do not enjoy the luxury of having their names spelled correctly. So I will call again and tell the little guy that a) I'd like to blot out the names and start anew; b) the form does not have enough spaces to include all my children/beneficiaries.

Of course, I'd also like to ask how such a thing happens--you spell my last name correctly and misspell my children's last name. Same name, you know. But I won't ask.
