#1176143 — DOGE Is Pronounced "Dodgy"

 |

 | 
 | Late Sunday night, the group erased or altered more than
 | 1,000 contracts it had claimed to cancel, representing more
 | than 40 percent of all the contracts listed on its site
 | last week. The deleted items included five of the seven
 | largest savings that it had claimed credit for just last

Playing an online Scrabble game the other night I was surprised to 
learn that "doge" is actually in the dictionary: the chief magistrate 
of Venice or Genoa.

I doubt if Italy would let Dr. Elon Evil enter the country though after 
all the trouble Mussolini caused them.

Venice, "Doge's Palace" is a famous landmark on the Grand Canal.

Yeah I think I know exactly what you're talking about now that you 
mention it, I saw it in a documentary recently about how they restored 
it to its earlier grandeur.
