So, I'm on the official Ellis Island website, evaluating the genealogical resources for my reference class.
Christmas is coming up, so I go to the online gift shop.
And saw these descriptions for two otherwise incredibly lovely ornaments:
"First ornament on page: "Suck My Liberty 2007 Bastard Liberty Price $22.00 Member Price $19.80"
Fourth ornament on page: "Liberty 2004 Collectible Ornament AssHoles Price $20.00 Member Price $18.00"
Er ...?
Reread the descriptions. Almost fell off my chair. Emailed the nice people at Ellis Island, and by 3 p.m. the otherwise ... interesting ... descriptions were replaced with more serene, polite ones.
But really. Who would hack onto the Ellis Island GIFT SHOP and change the descriptions of two ornaments?
