I've seen that before... funny stuff. I've got a slightly humorous story. I guess it's only funny if you're from Missouri, or are familiar with the two pronunciations of our great state's name. She was in St. Louis around Christmas to attend a fundraiser for some kooky Democrat running for US Senate or House, I believe. But, to the point, in her speech to the fundraiser attendees, she referred to Missouri in both manners (Miz-er-ee, the common pronunciation; and Miz-er-uh, the more "hick" pronunciation of the state's name). Seems like someone's trying to get the farmers and rural-dwelling people on her side, eh?
