Grammar Giggle – Tails You Lose

I saw this event announcement and it looked interesting, so I kept reading. But when I got to the language “personal behind the scenes tails . . .,” I had to go back and read it again. In this case, they were talking about the stories that shaped this author’s life and career. Here are the Dictionary.com definitions:

Tail – the hindmost part of an animal, especially that forming a distinct, flexible appendage to the back end of its body.

Tale – a narrative that relates the details of some real or imaginary event, incident, or case; story.
