Cal probably gave that up a long time ago.
I know I did when a particular group of rapid posting friends used to simulpost in five different directions... and then answer it in rounds of five more directions... and again... *looks at AW*

The worst head-ache and night I ever had was when I got co-erced into MSN Messenger. And one night had 17 people in one window !!!
But just as a BTW, Reef, that WAS a fabulolous story-line.

Since then, I've restricted myself to one at a time, perhaps 2 or 3 windows, if I know I can handle the nature of the friends. That one got to the point that no one could track anything.

No worries about Hebert (note only ONE "r"). He's recently been to the salon and properly manicured/pedicured. So the 
are very warm and gentle. And always a surprise.

Is Hebert pronounced closer to Herbert or 'A bear'?

I'd guess "Heee-bairt", ... but I've never really gotten close enough to debate the notion.

you see now I'm wondering about this because, no offence, but Americans never pronounce anything properly

No offence at all, ... I'm Canadian.

Hebert is a fairly common surname, here. In Louisiana, it is pronounced 'A bear' but, in Texas it's pronounced just like Herbert, even though it clearly has only the one r.
Seems confusing? That's mild next to Gauthier, Boudreaux, Thibodeaux, Cailliet and Theriot.

What a coincidence, ... when I was dealing with divorce, I dealt with the law-firm of "Gauthier, Boudreaux, Thibodeaux, Cailliet and Theriot".

One of the players on the L.S.U. baseball team had the last name Theriot. At one game the announcer called him 'terrio', 'thery ot', and 'theeryo' interchangeably. Made it seem like the team had three pitchers at the same time.
