"...thusly upsot!" Og Oggilby-That one should have rang a bell. I watched those W.C. Fields movies all the time when I was a kid. It seems like ancient history now. Manson-Nixon line-Never heard that version. Whenever my mom hears me say Manson-Dixon line(in context mind you), she always corrects me. She's a very nice person, not a weisenheimer like myself.

Berenice or anyone else who might know. Last night I made Sveeedish Meatballs, which got me thinking. What is the correct pronunciation of this word...Worcestershire?...
It's pronounced Wooster-shear in Britain. In America all bets are off.
Gloucester is said Gloster.
Grosvenor is said Grove-ner.
