Here's a story from CNN. Is there any question at all that this was intentional? I mean, really, what are the odds that this is coincidence? Also, is this funny or inappropriate?

Did Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger mean to hide a message in this note?
Did Schwarzenegger say f**k you to legislature?

(CNN) - Was Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's message to state lawmakers unhappy - or obscene?

That's the current debate in California after the governor sent a letter directed to "Members of the California State Assembly" that appeared to have a subtle but pointed message hidden within the text.

The seven-line note in which the California Republican blasts the legislature for not advancing his administration's proposals on a host of issues appears innocuous enough at first glance.

But upon closer examination, the first letter of every line collectively spells 'f**k you'.

A spokesman for Schwarzenegger said the governor had no intent of hiding the message within his note, calling it a mere "coincidence."

(To be fair and balanced, here's a funny video from Arnold's early days (thanks, Greg). No secret message can make you not sound dumb there.)
