I've been thinking of doing this for a while, for those of you who don't know how to pronounce names of things.

Example: Honda....Hon-duh.

How do you pronounce Houser, Huevos, Wiseco??

Huevos = Whey-vos

PEP= P.E.P. spelled out not one word.

You know, I had it spelled that way and someone told me it was spelt with a "U". So I changed it.

CRich[814]
10-22-2006, 08:23 PM
i only know this because i needed my daily dose of the oh fudgems commercial and i couldnt find it on youtube so i googled some stuff and found out i was spelling it wrong.
