Yes, it does give me all sorts of chills. He just casually reeled it off a couple of visits ago and I had never heard him tell that story before. It really hit me.

OK, while the Yankees are beatin' up on the Twins, I have a pet peeve: I cannot stand these TBS announcers and names!!!
I mean, I get (teSHEERa); it's elegant, in fact. And I even get (canOH) even thouh there's no accent at the end.
But (waulkeen benWAH)??? (benWAHR)? Or worse yet, (benWAHLLL)???
Why was (benOYT) good enough for Joan from the Olympics and the eponymous college? An why isn't it (DEtwah), and (illinWAH)/(illinWAHR)/(illinWAHL)??? (And what about (pino NWAH/NWAHR/NWAHL), and for those literalists, (film NOYER???) And not to mention, 'Chateaubriand? For two? But I don't like red wine!' Sheesh.)
And speaking of names, wouldn't it be cool if it were Anderson von Fuerstenberg 360???
But my all-time fave is 'INXS', pronounced (in exCESS), but you always hear 'Who are these guys, the (Inks)?)
I'll stop now, y'all have suffered enough -- but can you see what it's like to live inside MY head?
