About twice a year Ben and I stroll down the same conversation path regarding the pronunciation of MUSEUM. Not kidding folks, we have the SAME conversation, exchanging the same thoughts, always ending with silence and then laughter. Somehow, Ben finds a way to pronounce "museum" with sounding only two syllables.
"Mew-zum"
Then I say, "MU-ZEEE-UM!"
Tonight we laughed, then went back and forth a couple times. I put in the last word, with the most serious face I could muster, "Hun, Please don't teach our children to say 'musum.'"

I assure you, he did not learn that at our house when we were growing up :)
