This was very funny.
I am a transplanted Califonian into the mountains of Central PA since 1987. I have lived here longer than I have lived anywhere else since, yet there are a couple of things I still just can't understand. The first one being the concept of burn barrels. *shaking my head* Although having grown up in San Diego I am sure you all understand now why those just drive me nuts. The other thing is Reading. Ok. As far as I am concerned the correct pronunciation of this word is just as if you are READING a book. Not Redding. If Reading was suppose to be pronounced Redding shouldn't it have been spelled this way??
