You say tomatoe, I say tomato.
You say potatoe, I say potato.
Tomatoe, tomato.
Potatoe, potato.

LOL - sorry couldn't help myself. Actually, this polystyrene, styrofoam, confusion is different than pronouncing vegetables. Yet, it doesn't compare to the rubber and getting knocked-up confusions.

That's pretty weird but hey not a problem so long as we're talking about the same thing.. 'A Rose by any other name' LOL.. Even if it's reversed across the pond.. Could be a trademark thing too. Depending on who is making the stuff..

Anyway .. It was raining all day today so I didn't go to far from home.. I Did that last weekend and got a pretty good cold (still have a bit of it lingering). So I didn't want to push my luck again. Tomorrow though should be a good day.
