OH YEAH? WHO IS MOVING BACK TO REGINA? ME!

Well, not "back," because I never lived there before!

But, it sounds like naughty!

Regina!

London is the South East. Some claim it is in the South East, but they are wrong.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

"But, [Regina] sounds like naughty!"

Surely you don't pronounce it like that...

How else could one pronounce it? As far as I know, from watching news broadcasts from Alberta, it is pronounced that way.

Last I heard, the name "Regina" was pronounced "reh-jee-nuh". But I don't know how you Canadians do things. You take your spelling from the Brits, so maybe you do similar things w/ your city names. "Glosster", indeed...

...says the boy from St. "Lewis"


Though the latin word for queen is indeed pronounced Rejeena, the name of the capital city of Saskatchewan rhymes with vagina. Such a three-dimensional name for such a two-dimensional place.

I hear it has a lot of depth... for a Canadian city.

Bit hairy on the outskirts, though.

That's still less hairy than Tim, who is very hairy indeed. Mainly because he has more body parts to be hairy on, but that's no excuse.

I daresay the joke went a bit over Liam's frosted-tipped head...

And "Louis" is pronounced "loo-iss" everywhere but France, I suspect. And it certainly isn't as bad as the nearby town of Cairo (kay-roh), Illinois. And New Madrid (MA-drid), for that matter.

If you travel outbound of Regina, you'd end up in Moose Jaw, which, I guess, is the city equivalent of a suppository.

Louis has always equalled Looie up here in the Great White North, or at least all the Louises (how the hell can you pluralize a word ending in a silent 's' anyway?) I've known have pronounced it that way.
