None of us use the King's English all the
time. In fact, using absolute English grammar all the time makes us
sound "stuffy." I go out of my way to talk like a hick. It adds
character.
John Panesko always brags that he's
a bigwig in Toastmasters.
Listen very carefully and hear him pronounce SANDwiches as SAMwiches.

Panesko must be reading my web site because on July 11, 2006, he
finally started pronouncing it SANDwiches. But he couldn't help
himself.
He did let it slip one time.
Oops! It looks like our local wordsmith fell off the wagon again.

OK. I give up. Maybe Toastmasters isn't all it's cracked up to be.
Either that, or Panesko just isn't a good representative of
Toastmasters.
