Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Whatever happened with the gren-ich, CT vs green-wich, RI thing? Didn't the Rhode Islanders get steamrolled?
There are two pronunciations here. The town of East Greenwich, where all the yuppies and rich people live, is gren-ich. The town of West Greenwich, which is the sticks, is still green-wich among the people who grew up there, but it's slowly dying out.
I'm having old home week. Or something. Me and all my other old slacker friends are getting back in touch with each other. It's nice to know that I have friends that, no matter how much our lives change and how utterly obnoxiously bad we are about regularly keeping in contact, we can just pick up from where we are and there is still the instant connection.
Of course, it may be a self-selecting thing....

That's kind of sad.
ION, I just sent out an evite for which the time and location may yet change. But we're trying to get 10 people together for dinner as a birthday surprise! I've got to know who can come. Man, I hate group planning.
That's kind of sad.
I blame the media.
Of course, there's still a bunch of different pronunciations for Warwick - Wahwick, Wawwick, Wa'rk...
Hee. I was going to give you crap about the apparent response. But you edited.
Just think, it will soon be over, Jesse!
Yeah, sara, you and your friends are SAD!!!!
Of course, I'm a little sad about my personal lack of regional accent, but I know that's kind of ridiculous.
Now I'm all paranoid that I screwed something up on the evite. I don't mind being in charge of my own stuff, but this is a group of people I am not 100% comfortable with.
Well, our ability to lose touch for 6 years (one of them) is kinda pathetic, I'll grant you that.
Nah, I have the same kind of friends -- it doesn't matter how long we go without contact.
Ayup.

I was told that it was WAR-ick (from a tour guide at Warwick Castle, but that might just be a British thing).
