HOLY CARP!!!

Sam is in Toronto this weekend, so I met him for lunch at Yorkdale mall, which is near where he is staying. Sam has the photographic evidence, so stay tuned. It was probably the first time I said many forum members names out loud, which seemed strange. Turns out, we each pronounce 'jgoo' differently. ![]() When we bought bottles of water, I commented on how Toronto is introducing a new tax on bottled water, and joked about how Mark would like that. Sam replied; "I can see the angry emoticon." |

How many ways are there to pronounce jgoo? I would pronounce it Jay-Goo. |

Funny you should mention that. I expected him to be around 6'2" or 6'3", but he was pretty much the same height as me. (around 5'10") |
