Alex, thank you much for that public service announcement. As far as I know, though, the quoted pronunciation has evolved to "murr'cun" or "murricun", at least on Tanknet, and most of them are murr'cuns...

Hope that's a help to you.

Just member to take yer passport with ya, and leave home yer AK-47! :D

Well, K, it sure ain't freezin' here! Downright warm for this time 'o year. Hardly even need the longjohns.

Alex, y'all take care, drive safe and stay outta trouble, y'hear? An' if'n ya come across roadkill, y'all only scoop it up if'n ya know it's fresh. Otherwise chuck it at the guy blowin' his horn behind you to distract 'im while you get yer AK outta da trunk. :teach:
