Yes, the cartoon character.

You know, I stared at that for a couple of minutes thinking, "But wait, isn't that right?" *sigh* It's SUCH a Friday!

Oh wait, I'm a grad student. I haven't interacted with the real world in *years*. Of *course* I'm out of the cultural loop.

And then I started to wonder, "Hmmm, what *would* the plural be".

(asterisk from (Latin) asteriscus from (Greek) asteriskos...)

Asteriskoi!
