How do you pronounce the capital of Kentucky?

a. Loo-ee-ville



or



b. Loo-iss-ville



















































It's pronounced: Frank-furt











any others?

 

[nickleinonen]

um, i'm kinda slow eh... ... and i don't get it

 

[klenger]

I would assume that Frankfurt is the capital of KY and not Louisville, but I didn't know that before.



Sort of like where do they bury the survivors of an airplane crash, or how many spark plugs are there in a Cummins inline 6 cylinder diesel engine?

:need a "puke" smiley here:

If you give the whale some decomposition time, the flies, dehydration, etc, will leave the ton of feathers heavier... . unless they get rained on, in which case, they'll be heavier sooner.



Either way, I don't want to be nearby.
