I Want My Home Run and Daybreak
Don't know if anybody else listens in on the drive home, but I'm a regular listener and I miss my daily dose. Radio is sooooo boring without CBC Radio One! Now does that make me a certified geek or just somebody who hates top-40 dreck?
Haitch? I just noticed two of my colleagues say this instead of "aitch", as in "the haitch drive." Now where does this come from? Is this a local variation due to the influence of French? Another Canadianism like "aboot"? Must be the 3 years of linguistics I did in my undergrad degree, but I find regional accents and speech variations fascinating!
