Wednesday night, while watching the Astros-Cards game…
Shakes: Such a weird way to pronounce that name—Ohs-walt.
Mr. Shakes: Aye.
Shakes: We should start telling people our name is pronounced McEee-wan.
Mr. Shakes: I’m shoore there are people who proonoonce it McEee-wan.
Shakes: No there aren’t.
Mr. Shakes: Yes, there are.
Shakes: Not.
Mr. Shakes: Are.
Shakes: Not.
Mr. Shakes: Are.
Shakes: Not.
Mr. Shakes: We coold be trendsetters, and demand that we be called the McEee-wans, and then there woold be.
Shakes: But if we’d be trendsetters, then you’re admitting there are no people who currently call themselves McEee-wan.
Mr. Shakes: Ooh, you’ve goot me! Coongratoolatoons! You’ve woon the Great McEee-wan Debate of 2005. Lincooln and Dooglas woold be soo prood!
In the ensuing tussle, I’m certain there was reference made to my doominant noostril.
