Mispronounciations by People Who Should Know Better
Lately it seems I’ve heard a number of mispronounciations and mis-speaks by public speakers and such, who really should no know better. This morning in Sunday School it was “scrupulous” instead of “unscrupulous.” Oops.
Last Sunday a visiting preacher kept saying “stastistics.” He had another one too, but I forget what it was. I forget the rest of them.

Sadistics, how about that?

I believe your “mispronounciations” is tongue-in-cheek, so to speak. Please settle the uncertainty that is in my mind.
Why doesn’t By have an option for an “other” identity for commentators? He uses Blogger, too. Or do your web design skills allow you to expand on the defaults offered by Blogger?

Actually, that wasn’t a purposeful mispronunciation so much as a nickname.
EG, I think it’s a new blogger feature, but I’m not sure.
