Pronunciation Jerks
			  Quick, say the word “often” 5 times to yourself.  How do you say it?  Do you say “off-en?”  Or do you say “off-ten?”  Today I was walking from the train to work and I heard a guy behind me say, “off-ten.”  Right then, I knew he was a jerk.  I don’t need to know anything else about him, but I guarantee you he’s a jerk.
