GROAN.... 3:30 here... 1 hour to go...:S

All I have to kill time is this board and my radio. Unfortunately, the radio station seems to only have about 10 songs in their library. >:(

Yeah, it's fine, we'll walk down the line. Leave our rain, a cold trade for warm sunshine
You my friend, I will defend... and if we change, well, I love you anyway

Since I am Canadian. Zed.

But this is the same debate as these:S:

The stuff you drink:
Pop or Soda (Clearly is pop:)
The roof of your house:
Rewf or Ruff (Rewf for sure:ph34r:)

The jetski (Bombardier):

Bombardee-ay or Bomb-badeer (This is obviously pronnounced Bobardee-ayB|)

Here's a little poem:

Bombardee-ay
Sounds kinda gay
Wouldn't you say?
Aw take off, eh?



People who say Bomb-badeer just sound so ignorant of the CANADIAN founder of the company who is French (I know, I know but still) and Bombadee-ay is how his name is pronounced.

Tell me you don't say RUFF too. (edit to say this makes you sound like a dog:P)

My dictionary (The New Lexicon Webster's Dictionary of the English Language) says the same definition as yours but the Pronunciation Key says bomberdier (I don't have the letters to do it cause the e's are supposed to be upside down and the o is supposed to be a backwards a.:S)

Anyways...that makes Bombardee-ay:P. And regardless of what the dictionary says, Bobardier the company is from a persons name not some bomber so it is different. Too much aguing for me now.[:/]
