Hey Kenneth. The missing third syllable is "Byung" which is like a family surname. In fact all of my brothers' names start with "Byung". I could tell you the many names that rhymes with that come out of grade school mouths but I'll refrain :-). Still, my name remains "Byung Jin", and my other brothers get "Steve", "Doug", "Bill", "Christopher". Just as how "Tony" is the familiar name of a more proper "Anthony", the familiar pronounciation of my name rhymes with "Gina". Only my mother calls me that, and it still makes me sweat when she calls me loudly in public places, bless her heart :-).

Hey Wayne! You always seemed to have something uplifting and humorous to say. I wish that more people like you were on the threads I visit. Lately I've begun to think that SI membership is like a license to make fun at other's expense.

Jack, what goes down usually comes back up. As Redhead says, smile!
