Ok. Maybe I'm wrong here. But Larry keeps pronouncing the word "distain" using a "d" for the "t" in the word. He's saying dis-dain. Is that wrong. Or is he pronouncing the word correctly? I'm pretty sure he's not.

Another note. I've heard Larry pronounce the word Illinois as Ellinois. When he is sick does he say "I'm very Ell today".

Larry is correct. I'm wrong. I just looked it up. I always thought the word was "distain". I've heard people use it that way and so have I. I'm stupid. Distain is a word however. It means discoloration or something.

But he does say Ellinois. I know that's wrong.

I wonder if he pronounces Joliet as "Jolly-et" like some Chicago folks do.

Since you're apparently taking spelling/pronunciation corrections today, you might want to be alerted to the fact that "probrally" is not a word in the English language. I believe the word you seek in many of your posts is "probably". Ex: This correction of Beardown's use of "probrally" probably won't register with him. :wink:
