They pronounced it that way three times on 24 this week. It was jaw-dropping, because it was by the joint chief and the president.

Yes, lots of people pronounce it that way so I thought it was a funny nod to him, that it’s obvious what he is talking about so why hammer him on the pronunciation? If we’re using that word, we have bigger fish to fry!

I go to school to learn words like epenthesis — also reading, writing, & arith-i-ma-tics.

We need more little afternoon showers like yesterday, so
fingers crossed-
With his practical epenthesis,
AT least Bush would have tried
To undo congressional messes
Instead of running to hide
He wouldn’t have gone nu-cu-ler
But he’d know what it takes
To come up with a strategery
For even his own mistakes
Obama just plays pool and golf
And does fund raisers at night-
Fifteen thousand bucks a plate
While hiding in plain sight...
