Prancing and Sucking

I quit my job, sold my home, and drove around the country in the summer and fall of 2006, training BJJ, finding myself, and landing in LA. I still travel a lot and get to train in amazing places. Some of my friends are irritated that I "prance" around the world and think I "suck" for doing so.

I'm such a snob

So apparently Snapple has come out with some new line of fitness water. One of the flavors is acai (the "c" should have a little accent cedille underneath it). The commercial guy pronounced it "a-SIGH."

It should be pronounced "a-sah-EE."

Jeez.

(For those of you who don't know, acai is a berry that's made into a delicious slushy mixture that is served with bananas and granola, and has natural stimulants and lots of antioxidants. So it is "health food." The berry is indigenous to Brazil. This is how I know about it.)

At Squeeze, the smoothie place near the gym, they make Rio bowls. They have acai smoothies, too. There's a sign with instructions on how to pronounce it. Ah-sigh-ee. Sigh is right. Coming from me. We also had to tell them how to make the Rio bowl.
