OK. So, I've been controlling myself for days now, but I can't shake a ludicrous image out of my head. I must pass it along, or it will be with me forever.
Liza Minnelli used to sing a song in her stage act which was written about the difficulties she had with others pronouncing her name. The song goes,
It's Liza with a Z,
not Lisa with an S,
cuz Lisa with an S goes ssss not zzzz;
It's lie instead of lee ...
And similarly regarding her surname.
Now, I find myself envisioning the great Gandhi doing a little dance on stage, singing,
It's Gandhi with a G,
Not Ghandhi with a Gh, ...
MAKE IT STOP!
