I really don't know whether Miranda Productions of Alabama has real merit or not, but regarding her grammar and spelling, I would not base my opinion, one way or another, on that alone.

Grammar and spelling were very important to me in college and law school, but to my Mobile, Alabama, born and raised wife, they were never taught well or considered terribly important to folks like her who pronounce Saturday as "Sayerday."

Still, my wife's marketing and promotional skills are incredible. All she has to do is smile and let loose with her Alabama charm and few can say no to her on even the most outrageous proposals. That's success any way you care to spell it.

I'd trade my encyclopedia brain for her Alabama smile and charm in a New York minute if I could. Just hearing her say the word "innuendo" turns heads every time. She makes it sound as though it should follow 'How much is that doggie." And believe me, she would never attempt to spell the word.
