In addition to spending even more money at next Monday's bi-weekly meeting, the Plano City Council will decide whether or not to do what appears to be the impossible in Dallas: Change a street name. This change would appear to be easier, as they're merely changing Lesli Court to Leslie Court.
I'm guessing that the six houses on the street got sick of people adding that extra "e" to their street name (like Google Maps already does -- see below) and decided to just go with the accepted spelling. But what about all the Leslis of the world, like TV and film director Lesli Linka Glatter? What about their feelings?

Next, we change all the "Westminister" streets to "Westminster."

I like the usage of "diss" in the title. Give this boy a raise.

I'm offended by this and I don't know why. But dammit, it's wrong!
