Greatest mod forum hijack ever. [/ QUOTE ] The original hijack centered around Degen's name, but then it got re-hijacked into discussion about Oregon. "Um, guys am I permabanned from the site? What about my business? My hobby? My livelihood?" "Sorry, homes, we're a little too busy figuring out how to pronounce Oregon to determine your future interaction on the web, m'kay?" "*sigh* All right." [pause] "It's OAR-eh-gun." |

If you say it like you would say gun that sounds nearly as strange as gone. I'm going to assume you know that and are just getting as close as reasonably possible since you're from Washington. Because you're from Washington I'll also assume that you like to cruise in the left lane going the speed limit. |

Jared,
I promise you that I say it right, even if I haven't done it well in word form. I come from two generations of people that worked in northwest news, so we've had many conversations in terms of correctly pronouncing towns far more difficult than Oregon. I give you: Puyallup. |

I give you: Puyallup. [/ QUOTE ] My old water polo coach, a displaced Californian, routinely called this "puh-LOO-pa." I don't know how he arrived at it. Tulalip is another one that throws people. |
