re: #32 jaunte
I have a hard time pronouncing Spanish names as anything but Spanish.
When I moved to Houston another kid told me San Felipe Road was pronounced San Fill-A-Pee, but I just couldn’t do it.
oh, one more. Veteran’s Boulevard in New Orlins (NOT New OrLEENS. NOT New Awlins or Nawlins unless you live in a 4 block area of the city and were born there) is Vet’runs. Never heard anybody actually pronounce it like it would be found in the dictionary.
