Random question: How do folks pronounce "sauna"? It seems the common pronunciation here is "SAW-nah", but the Finnish side of my family pronounces it "SOW-nah."
Wesley: Illyria can be...difficult. Testing her might be hard without getting someone seriously hurt. Angel: We'll make Spike do it. Wesley: Good.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

SAW-nah except when I'm talking about them with my 1/2 Finnish friend! Then it's SOW-nah.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Speak American, people! Here we call it saw-nah!

I'm so tired that I think I might die. My body is getting revenge for all the punishment I put it through this weekend. I think I'm going directly to bed when I get home from work.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I say "schvitz" but I guess that takes place in a "saw-nah."

I saw that elsewhere, and was trying to figure out if it was a joke.

ION, Harry Potter Star Daniel Radcliffe Seeks Mystery Australian Girl
Daniel Radcliffe, the actor behind the boy wizard Harry Potter, is hunting for a mystery Australian girl who cast a spell on him at a film awards party, local media reported on Monday.
Radcliffe, who started playing Potter in the popular Harry Potter movies when he was 11, has often spoken about not being able to find a girlfriend.
But Sydney's Daily Telegraph Newspaper said Radcliffe, 18, now wanted help to track down a woman he met briefly at a film event in Australia.
"She stared at me all night and I was going to get her number and then I couldn't find her," Radcliffe told the newspaper.
"I must have walked around that party for an hour trying to look for this girl, like some sad pathetic dweeb, but it would have been worth it."
See, that was totally me at 18 (without the being an internationally famous movie star....)
