Cutting Some Slack

Okay, so I reproduced an online news item about the Duggar family last week under the headline "Stupid News." Michelle and Jim Bob have a brood of 15 children, and in particular I poked fun at the one named "Jinger." I thought it was pronounced the way it looks - turns out it's just an odd spelling for "Ginger" so I'm going to cut the little girl some slack. It's obviously hard to give each one of your children a different name starting with the letter "J" -- at least they didn't name them all Jim Bob a la George Foreman.
