Have You Been Pronouncing It Correctly?
Many words in our language we often only see in print. Have you actually heard how these words are officially pronounced? The Mirriam Webster dictionary will help you out. I've linked to some of the more common words or phrases you have probably been saying wrong.
Pocket PC
iPAQ
Palm
Zire
Ed Hansberry
RIAA
Who's yer daddy?

Took me a couple of replays to realize what was going on. Thought the technology was really screwed up at first. That's too funny! A good one to end a week on Ed!
Especially appreciate the Palm entry.
