I practice saying "puh-can" pie every time so that should I ever visit Louisiana in the future, I won't get made fun of by some sassy waitress for asking for "Pee-Can" pie.

Ha ha, it's not a toilet. I get it.

Now bring me my damn pie!

i use the "weez." thats good nickname material...."the weez." maybe i can adopt that and start a career of costumed crime fighting.

i say "pee-kan" when talking about 1 pecan. but when im talking about the tree's in the yard or a bucket full of them i use "pe-khan."

Actually...I use both. Depends on who I'm with. And New Orleans is "N'awlins."
