I think I erred on my pronunciation. I knew it was either Poo or Foo. :-)

5. No. As punishment please review the following thread. |
|
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=2898688It's pronounced Pah-ket, it doesn't sound like bucket or that other thing you were thinking of either.

7. I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought of that question. |
|
I'm sure at least one journalist asked it, though. You think?

Is it Osama or Usama?
Just the other day, there was a Chain-ee vs. Cheen-ee discussion.

10. It's closer to POO than Pah, I'll admit. I was trying to describe a |
