| Grocery stores are where I get my to-MAY-toes…what some of you pretentious a-holes might call to-MAH-toes. So let’s just call the whole thing off. That is all. Now get back to work. |

But those are all followed by i and another vowel. |

You sure do, Sean! And now it's official, but not artificial. Crucial, and beneficial that you are conscious of these words. You don't want to get crossed with a ferocious musician, technician, physician, magician, species while stuck on a spacious glacier with a suspicious chef who parachuted in holding a cache of champagne and some chic brochures that feature some cliche' machine. Now get your chauffeur to drive your mustached self to your chalet in Chicago and eat some fuchsia colored quiche then swing from your chandelier. |
