  1. Just so I have this straight:
    Does his name rhyme with "sea" which I what I have always thought.
    Or is it "ray"?
    I bet it's not "rhea" like the south American bird.

    Thanks.

  7. Schedule is pronounced, "skeddule". It is only pronounced "shedjule" by people who have been in their cups so long they've forgotten what sober even means.

  10. It isn't, Loz.
    Schedule is pronounced "shedule" by Brits and "skedule" by Americans. Your confusion stems from the excessive influence of American culture in British life.

  11. Au contraire, Glidd. Any confusion stems from the intrusion of British influence into my American culture.
    I should know, it's been going on for decades!

    Besides, how could millions of Americans possibly be wrong?
