Steve Irwin fans suspected of revenge attacks on stingrays.

On the other hand, I finally had a caller identify herself as "an alumna" of the university. (This after two in a row who described themselves as "an alumni".) She went on to add, "I have three degrees" and I was like, I bet you do! You also know what all those initials stand for, don't you?

Actually, is 'alumna' actually wrong?
I thought that the word is 'alumnus' (plural 'alumni') which is Latin masculine singular (of which the feminines would be 'alumna' and 'alumnae')

My point was someone actually got the gender right after two others tried and failed. It restored my faith in the graduates of this fine institution just a teeny tiny bit.
