The following is one of the discussion questions that has been posted for the past two weeks for my online class:

What was your reaction to Thompson's brief interview with Andrea Smith?? What did you think of Smith's statement about the adoption of Indian spitball practices being a "racist phenomenon"??

Someone posted asking what the Indian spitball practices were, since they hadn't been mentioned in the lecture.

The instructor checked, and posted this response:

I am admitting this reluctantly and as proof positive to never rely upon spellcheck!! (and also that everyone is capable of both error and embarassment)

"spitball" should have been "spiritual".

Wow am I embarassed!!

*giggle* I found this especially amusing since I've been wondering what Indian spitball practices were for the past two weeks.
