"Italian Teacher or Tudor Wanted"

From a job-search site: “I am looking for an italian teacher personal tudor (one on one) or lessons in possibly group or class like sessions.”

I am so tempted to dress up like Anne Boleyn and knock on their door . . .

Do you have 6 fingers on one hand? IIRC, Anne Boelyn could use her fingers to count to 11.

Maybe he’s looking to buy a specific type of house with a lot of statuary in the yard.

Hey, Eve, too bad it’s not Spanish. You could totally go as Katherine of Aragon. No extra fingers required there.

OR, if you happen to have chosen a foundation that’s way too light, you could go as Elizabeth I. I know what you’re thinking, it’s hard to drive while wearing a farthingale, never mind that huge collar. But so worth it, don’t you think?

Well, I guess technically speaking (DNA-wise) Elizabeth I was a Tudor. Would Isabella D’Este or Lucretia Borgia have been “Italian Tudors?”

Let me know if anyone’s looking for a Tooter.

Well, ditionary.com has this entry for Tudor:

Perhaps the advertiser is just picky…

Sure she was! Elizabeth I was Anne Boleyn’s daughter and, also, Henry VIII’s daughter.

What about “Bloody” Mary Tudor? You can show up with your own kindling wood for getting rid of pesky Protestants.

"Cold is God’s way of telling us to burn more Protestants,

That was supposed to read,

There’s a Blackadder quote for every possible situation—

Lady Whiteadder: “Cold is God’s way of telling us to burn more Protestants.”

I have an ad for birds for sale somewhere that says like, “Macaw, cow included, African grey, cow included.” How does someone misspell ‘cage’ in this manner twice? Or maybe I should have verified the cow thing by checking the livestock ads.

Hee! Bless you, lieu, that made my afternoon.

Sheesh, it’s just a simple spelling mistake! He obviously meant to write “two-door”. So, just drive up in a Miata and everything will be fine.

I agree, the ad is definitely not clear. Will any Tudor do or does it have to be an Italian Tudor? If the later, I’m not sure how easy it is to find a member of the House of Tudor that is also Italian…

Of course, perhaps an Italian person who lived during the Tudor era would suffice–thus, my Isabella D’Este or Lucretia Borgia suggestion.
