Poor Choice of Words

teh
Only half listening, I heard an NPR story at the top of the hour on Jill Carroll began something like this:

Jill Carroll, the journalist who was kidnapped and held in Iraq for 82 days, will BE HEADED home…

That gave me a fright until I realized that “be” and “headed” were to words in this instance.
