Making fun of how the Canadian speak? Or perhaps I’ve just misunderstood what that’s all abewt… ;o)</p>GreyStorkhttp://faerye.net/post/imaginary-lands#comment-970Re: existence2004-02-01T21:56:15+00:002004-02-01T21:56:15+00:00<p>And is that such a horrible thing for people to think of one?</p>felicityhttp://faerye.net/post/imaginary-lands#comment-958Re: existence2004-01-29T23:01:47+00:002004-01-29T23:01:47+00:00<p>Teehee. Then you’d have to pronounce it ballewn. People would think you were from Canada or something. :o)</p>GreyStorkhttp://faerye.net/post/imaginary-lands#comment-955Re: existence2004-01-29T16:37:25+00:002004-01-29T16:37:25+00:00<p>I think “balloon” should have a double u. Balluun. Or maybe just a single u with an umlaut. Ballün. Whee.</p>wonkohttp://faerye.net/post/imaginary-lands#comment-954Re: existence2004-01-29T15:00:58+00:002004-01-29T15:00:58+00:00<p>Vacuum! If you really want lots of double u’s, a classical education will stand you in good stead :)<br />

I think my friend probably thought of it himself in a riff off “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern” but I really wouldn’t put Garfield & Friends past him.</p>felicityhttp://faerye.net/post/imaginary-lands#comment-953existence2004-01-29T14:45:37+00:002004-01-29T14:45:37+00:00<p>It’s funny to me that this is the first time I’ve read your blog in weeks, and you are talking of the great debate that is the existence of the state I once called home.<br />
<br />
There once was an episode of Garfield and Friends dedicated to the inexistence of Wyoming. This was my first introduction to the theory that various countries/states/towns don’t exist. Since then I have met a whole range of disbelievers.<br />
<br />
I think you may be on to something with New York. Thinking about New York I have more of a sense of a ripple in the Space-Time continuum than a location.<br />
<br />
And now I digress…continuum may be the best word I know. So few word have a double u. There should be more.</p>grizelda
