Some peeps here already know this, but I thought it was The Inkses.
INXS was actually the answer to a question in one of the quiz shows I entered, back in '85. But I had not realised that segue had two syllables. I'd imagined it derived from French rather than Italian.
One of the radio announcers at my college radio station constantly misspelled segue on the ad cartridges.
It took him quite a while to understand why we crossed off the "way" in his "segueway."
Dudes. With all due regard to your maybe lack of pronunciation skills, I'm the one who have to stop every time before I say "England". Somewhere along my life I thought it should be pronounced as Eng-lee-end. Dunno why.
Also, don't have any idea about the order of the colors of the rainbow.
Also, seems like my computer is as slow as I am today. Kindda very tired here, lots to read, do and the first ep of Dr. Who, season 4 to watch before I'll leave home and the weekend behind me (but first thing first: typing maybe-important future-paper related paragraphs out of Walter Benjamin).

College friend announced R.E.M. as "rem," one of his first times on.
My officemate is from San Francisco and is constantly complaining about the weather here. According to him, in SF there is no weather and it's always 60 degrees.
Pfft. That's not true. It's always 62 degrees.

In my youth, it was considered bad form to play one song right after another, what the jock said between songs was a "segue" (two syllables), while going from one song to another was a "dead segue" (seg - one syllable). Was that peculiar to the era or location?

Red, orange, yellow, green, blue,
indigo, violet. To help remember, it's a lovely Name. Roy G. Biv.
With that. I must go to work. Don't want to. Day 13. Getting old. Maybe if we got passed Noah it would be less boring. But it seems I know this part of the bible better than some of the actors in the show. uggggg.
Note to self: make more time to Dr. Who on my weekends. It's now weekend 2 that I have to stop an ep in the middle of it to catch the bus on time.
Edit: *coughs*
I'm sure that's just a typo, but I can't help but have pangs of envy for that but Shir needs to catch.
