I fell in love with her the first time I sawed her.<\/p>\n<p> \t 9. He had such a worm heart.<\/p>\n<p> \t 8. We were two sheeps passing in the night.<\/p>\n<p> \t 7. We have hated each other for so long. I want to borrow the hatchet.<\/p>\n<p> \t 6. My dentist makes me blush twice a day.<\/p>\n<p> \t 5. I don&#8217;t know if he will propose, but I am expecting.<\/p>\n<p> \t 4. I have something exciting to tell you. My girlfriend and I got enraged last night!<\/p>\n<p> \t 3. The groom was wearing a very nice croissant.<\/p>\n<p> \t 2. He lifted the veal off her face and gave her a big kiss.<\/p>\n<p> \t 1. I think she is really glad she got marinated.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p> <i>Other innocent mistakes on the website include: <\/i><\/p>\n<blockquote><p> \tRecipes: Next, chop all the vegetarians into little pieces.<\/p>\n<p> \tHealth: It is dangerous to smoke while you are becoming pregnant.<\/p>\n<p> \tSports: It was so exciting to watch! The cheerleaders threw up high into the air.<\/p>\n<p> \tPolitics: The President got off the plane and gave a big kiss to the first ladder.<\/p>\n<p> \tGrammar: Should I have a coma in the middle of this sentence?<\/p>\n<p> \tMusic: When he was through singing he had a standing ovulation.<\/p>\n<p> \tFood: Do you like this food? I made it from scratching!<\/p>\n<p> \tParents: My bed has three blankets and a large guilt my parents gave me.<\/p>\n<p> \tWeather: Rain makes old cars lust. So be careful about that. Once a car starts lusting, there&#8217;s no way to stop it!<\/p>\n<p> \tTravel: You can&#8217;t sleep with me because it is too crowded. But you can probably sleep with my sister. That&#8217;s what most of my friends do when they visit. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p> &#8220;The website and the book are really just a celebration of the lighter side of learning language,&#8221; Oden said. &#8220;I still remember when I went on a college mission trip to an orphanage in Mexico, and I enthusiastically greeted each of the children with \u2018Buenos Dios! Buenos Dios!&#8217; After some puzzled looks and a lot of laughter, a friend explained that I wasn&#8217;t saying \u2018Good day.&#8217; I was running around to each of these kids shouting \u2018Good God! Good God!&#8217; The laughter of that moment really broke the ice with the children, and I guess it left a strong impression on me. Since then, I&#8217;ve had an appreciation for the way innocent language mistakes can bring smiles and laughter, and just maybe make someone&#8217;s day a little brighter.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> Oden, who is from Colorado, currently attends the University of Alberta, where he is pursuing a Masters degree in Education.
