When my family first moved into our Pittsburgh house back in 1961, the city sent a tax assessor out.

The assessor said to my father (who was from Brooklyn) that one tax factor was, as my father heard it “The toweled bathroom”.
My father said back “How about if we remove the towels.”
The reply was “Towels; T-I-L-E-S; Towels”.

And grandmother, from Western Missouri took the bus downtown (aka dahntahn) one day. She asked a policeman where Forbes Avenue was, so she could catch bus back. He looked confused “Forbes? Forbes? Oh Fo-Bus!” and then gave her correct directions.
