Your mind is a creative hotbed of artistic talent.
You're always making pictures in your mind, especially when you're bored.
You are easily inspired to think colorful, interesting thoughts.
And although it may be hard to express these thoughts, it won't always be.
Good question Paul, "Who is Jimmy Needham?" He is a christian singer song writer that we went and saw last week, Check him out, he is on my page as one of my top people. His music is bold in accountability yet his voice screams God's Love for all. He may not be your style but the message will transend that. Let me know what you think :)
haha - BTW, I just heard "Rocket and a Bomb" - it was good, I liked it. Can you send me an mp3 of the song you sang, Grace?
Also, checked out Eowyn - not bad. Not my cup of tea exactly, but... Anyway, isn't Eowyn the "Handmaiden of Rohan"? Is that where she came up with it?
Yeah, also I noticed that site you've listed was the very first to come up when googling - however, it's hardly authoritative since they don't even bother to mention that at one point in history the pronunciation of the word was actually changed from the correct pronunciation to the one you use...the knowledge of which does obviously cloud the idea that one is more accurate than the other. I also noted the inclusion on that site of "Old-Timers Disease" and "Heineken Remover", and I thought those contributions sure helped a great deal in lending credence, viability and an authoritative sense of propriety to the site you linked to... :-)
Often: Pronounce the t-sound or not?
We recently asked our web site visitors to take a poll on the word often. Here is how you responded:
In the word often, do you pronounce the t?
25% Always pronounce the t
50% Never pronounce the t
25% Sometimes I pronounce the t. Sometimes, I dont.
Which is more correct? Is it better to pronounce often with or without the t-sound?
The word often is a fascinating example of language in the process of change. The Random House Dictionary states that the pronunciation of often without the t-sound gained favor with educated speakers in the 17th century. In recent years, however, more and more people have been pronouncing often with the t-sound, just as it is spelled.
Many of us can remember that in our younger days, the spelling pronunciation (often with the t-sound) was relatively uncommon. In those days, it was sometimes felt to be incorrect or a sign of pretentious, overly careful speech. Nowadays, you hear many educated speakers using either pronunciation. Even some highly respected broadcast journalists use the pronunciation of often with the t-sound.
Our observation has been that the majority of people still pronounce often without the t-sound. Yet, as we listen to younger educated speakers, we hear a growing tendency to pronounce often with the t-sound.
So, what is one to do? Whichever pronunciation you use, you are correct! However, there are still some English speakers who criticize the pronunciation of often with a t-sound. If you absolutely want to play it safe and please everyone, pronounce often without the t-sound.
--PS - I am fully aware there are well established contradictions to this source - however, since they don't support my point of view I am taking the liberal high road and ignoring those sources.
Yeah, actually I think one of those blogs I read was by a friend of yours whom I met in Church on Sunday, but I'm not sure if he's listed as one of your myspace friends.
Its ProgPower USA. If you look that up on google, it should direct you to their site. They are on my friends list if you want to see the limited myspace version of it, lol.
