Besides, everybody knows that we all love an Aussie accent! I know that I do!

:wave: I do too, it's a lot easier for me to understand than those weirdos from America and England and other places like that... :)

This thread has cracked me up! :wave: And here I thought computer geeks were stiff and boring. :)

Just for the record, the Margi in MargiRose is pronounced with a hard 'G' as in Marguerite, not as in "gee your hair smells terrific". I hate when people pronounce it that way. :)

MargiRose, dsenette can be a little obscure at times. Just smack him and ask him to explain himself.

being obscure causes people to do their own research...and thereby learn more in the process

Thanks "Shorry" :) I'll keep that in mind the next time I'm in the mood for a smack-down. :)

But as he says, his obscurity can serve a purpose and I did learn a new word today. :wave:

:) I understand you really well.

In real life, my last name is very unique, but really not at all complicated to pronounce. However, people always fail to say it correctly because they're used to similar names that are read otherwise. It really annoys me. :mad: Can't you just READ the name THEN say it?
