GrungeMonkey · 06.20.2007, 04:01 PM

As in Allen Ginsberg of course...

Seriously?
It's not like his name is Allen Dziewczynski or something.
Pretty much like it looks.
Ginns-burg.

ginns-berg

NOT

GIN-sberg (like the alcohol)

It's pronounced like Renteria. Alternate pronunication Soboski.

mangajunky · 06.20.2007, 04:28 PM

it's spelled Luxury Yacht but it's pronounced Throatwarbler Mangrove...

Actually I met AG on avenue A one evening when my friend Mike was out scoring some pot. He was really friendly and cool and asked me all kinds of questions about my life.

I just saw him last night! He was holding a cardboard sign, and he asked me for some spare change.
