QUICK RANT.

I'm fascinated by the commercial advertisers that can't pronounce their own names or products and even hire expensive announcers who can't do it either. For instance almost every commercial for toothpaste uses the word dennist or dennal. No t. Lifelock's expensive commercials promise to protect you from idennity theft. No t.  For some reason Enterprise Rental Cars think their name is Ennaprize Rennal Cars. No Ts. And every company that has some kind of connection to the Internet thinks it's called the innanet. These are just a few of the dozens of advertisers who have rotten diction or hire pitchmen or women who do. I know this is a particular passion of mine, but it drives me mad because it's so unnecessary and lazy. Or as these advertisers would say, it's making me frannic.
