To meet the requirements of this new law, 10% of my posts from now on will be written as best I can manage in the Ebonic language.
("Ebonics" elided)
There's got to be a better way than Ebonizing manually. First there was the Canadianizer, eh, hoser? Then there was Zippy (www.metahtml.com/demos/zippy/), which is terrific for Willy/Freeh/Reno speeches. We really need an Ebonizer (TM)!
Sounds like Jive. Probably need to update it for the latest hip-hop lingo, but it's a nice filter.
BTW, Tim's not kidding about the Oakland, CA school system. Check your regular news source.
