Making fun of how the Canadian speak? Or perhaps I&#8217;ve just misunderstood what that&#8217;s all abewt&#8230; ;o)</p> GreyStork http://faerye.net/post/imaginary-lands#comment-970 Re: existence 2004-02-01T21:56:15+00:00 2004-02-01T21:56:15+00:00 <p>And is that such a horrible thing for people to think of one?</p> felicity http://faerye.net/post/imaginary-lands#comment-958 Re: existence 2004-01-29T23:01:47+00:00 2004-01-29T23:01:47+00:00 <p>Teehee. Then you&#8217;d have to pronounce it ballewn. People would think you were from Canada or something. :o)</p> GreyStork http://faerye.net/post/imaginary-lands#comment-955 Re: existence 2004-01-29T16:37:25+00:00 2004-01-29T16:37:25+00:00 <p>I think &#8220;balloon&#8221; should have a double u. Balluun. Or maybe just a single u with an umlaut. Ballün. Whee.</p> wonko http://faerye.net/post/imaginary-lands#comment-954 Re: existence 2004-01-29T15:00:58+00:00 2004-01-29T15:00:58+00:00 <p>Vacuum! If you really want lots of double u&#8217;s, a classical education will stand you in good stead :)<br /> <br /> I think my friend probably thought of it himself in a riff off &#8220;Rosencrantz and Guildenstern&#8221; but I really wouldn&#8217;t put Garfield &#38; Friends past him.</p> felicity http://faerye.net/post/imaginary-lands#comment-953 existence 2004-01-29T14:45:37+00:00 2004-01-29T14:45:37+00:00 <p>It&#8217;s funny to me that this is the first time I&#8217;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&#8217;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&#8230;continuum may be the best word I know. So few word have a double u. There should be more.</p> grizelda
