I reside in the post-apocalyptic urban wasteland of Detroit, Michigan.

Well, "Mare-lind," or even "Merrlind" if you're from Baltimore. I guess you can say "Mare-uh-lind" but why take the trouble to say 3 syllables?Edit: The pronunciation site says it's "lund" but I think it's more "lind". *shrug* Last edited by Durelin; 11-14-2008 at 05:54 PM. |

Only if you say it with an American accent. Pio's link is nothing like how Kath or I would say origin.
I have been there but clearly not long enough to get the pronounciation right - it seems like Ori the Dwarf with a gun ..eek scary. I second Eomer thought I have not moved since I joined I have not fully got the itch out of my feet I have been lucky enoug to live, work and study overseas at various times and have Interrailed around Europe and Amtrakked round the Northern USA (literally - a round trip from Chicago via Seattle and New York and over 20 states in between). I have also backpacked around Australasia. I will go off again when circumstance allow, woudl love to see more of Asia in particular but in the meantime I want to explore my own fair land a bit more.
