I got this in an email. I left off the pic of the young lady as it isn't necessary and it isn't her fault anyway. Here's what I got:

Why Illiteracy is rampant in Louisiana ~~~~




How do you pronounce this girl's name...LE-A?









How would you pronounce this child's name?

"Le-a"

Leah?? NO
Lee - A?? NOPE
Lay - a?? NO
Lei?? Guess Again.

This child attends a school in Livingston Parish, LA.. Her mother is
irate because everyone is getting her name wrong. It's pronounced "Ledasha".
When the Mother was asked about the pronunciation of the name, she
said, "the dash don't be silent."

SO, if you see something come across your desk like this please remember
to pronounce the dash.




If they axe you why, tell them the dash don't be silent.

 

You know, this is true. I live in Livingston Parish. Some people have no intelligence at all here.

 

Lehyphena?

 

Le-dumbass-a

TSC

 

Sad part is, I'm not surprised.

 

You know what though? Some of the schools in Livingston Parish are highest ranked in the state.

 

Somewhere someone wants to make a name tag that says Le-a.

Just watch and see how that name catches on.

 

That's Louisiana for you, dumbest place in the U.S.
