Why is the word "axle" so damn hard for people to figure out? C'mon man!

I blame the producers of "Beverly Hills Cop" for that.

True story.

I own a garage. My son (now 20) could care less about mechanical things.....we get a dog when he's 15. He is in charge of naming it.

He says "I'm calling him Axle."

I was touched. A car part ! He says, "no, as in a guys name."

I was bummed. I was so close to thinking he cared, or atleast understood, of what I do.

But just in case I asked "How are we going to spell it ?

He says "A...x.... l... e."

Hah hah hah hah...I laugh, and so does my wife. Freakin' text generation can't spell and he ends up naming (spelling) it the way I would want, not the way he want's.

It stuck because we never told him the spelling/meaning difference of Axel and Axle.

Hah hah hah hah.

Noticed that under "accidents" the car report says "minor incident". If that's minor, I'd hate to see what they call a major incident...
