Got any more etouffee if I Knockando on your door?

Oh, yes... Bravo. Knockando is wonderful. I laughed and laughed when I found out the Scots pronounce it: "No can do"...

That IS funny ... (so long as you're not talking about the etouffe =)

I don't think I've ever heard it pronounced correctly as bartender for NOLA or Peristyle. Not at all surprising, though, when you think about how New Orleanians pronounce most of the streetnames around here.
