So my ancient elderly Retired teacher never-married sister tried to snob me out about

[UTUSN]

her having been in the audience for "Romeo/Juliet" by GOUNOUD, although she didn't know how to pronounce GOUNOUD. HAH!1

[pacalo]

1. I got your sister's back...

It's "Gounod".

:spank: Next time, refer to her as a mature, worldly, still eligible, retired teacher.

2. Hah!

[UTUSN]

3. She's still eligible, so I'll be your Best (and main-est) Man!1

Think about it. Benefits. Meatloaf. Dogs.

4. This is sounding like a MUSIC thread, so stand by for Diva Ms Sara BRIGHTMAN, too!1

Although La Segnora Monseratt CABALLERE is also a possiblility. So SPELL *that* you, TOO!1

6. I'm *off* to start a thread about my ORTHOGRAPHY (or lack thereof)!1 n/t

7. It's goo-no.

It's Turandot. Not Turan-do.

The idiots on the jewelry channels drive me nuts. They say peridot, not peri-do.

And the ones on Antique Roadshow say "PAT-in-nah.

It's Pah-TEEN-ah. :banghead:

8. I believe it's pronounced "go-nad."

Glad to be able to clear that up.

Heh heh.
