It is a dialect pronunciation that, somehow, has become rather main stream.

I was just posting and will post about our evening yesterday when I saw your post. All is well. Middle daughter family was at the Polar Express in Branson while the Youngest came to Little Rock to babysit while the oldest daughter and SIL took us to Memphis. Check out my next post. Looks like a lot of fun last night, great gift too. Glad you made it home safe and sound. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
