That’s Fort Worth, Mr. Attorney

Do you want to hire an attorney who can’t spell the location of where he serves? Note the ad identifies the attorney’s specialty as “DWI.” I wonder if the lawyer was TWI (typing while intoxicated). I was born and bred in Fort Worth, and I’m a proud Cowtown native. I’ve seen my share of “Forth Worth” including once from my -horror- daughter.

An army major set up fort there and named it in honor of General William Jenkins Worth, who never set foot in the area. So there you have it. It’s Fort and no where near Fort Wayne, Indiana.
