5. Other...
Edited on Tue Oct-05-04 09:27 AM by Hand
Tomatto (hard "a"); I've heard it that way frequently in NS. Also "tacko" for that Mexican dish...

ON EDIT: That isn't how I pronounce it, however.

6. I pronounce all my capital letters with a whole lot of Yiddish phlegm
So, I'll have to go with "tomato."

Anyone who votes otherwise should be disembowelled. By cats.

Maybe you should explain the joke for the rest of the folks.

I think I've got it at this point.

Planning to immigrate? Or just being a tourist?

10. Sooner than you think, if things don't go so well.
