CockneyRebel, it may have ended in terms of rain in your kingdom though, where I reside territorial wise it shall be raining in the next day

You sound like a colourful dude - you'll fit in well here.

The word "condescending" sounds like Khan Descending, which would be a good title for a sci-fi/superhero movie.

Not if you're Australian.

If you're an Australian, It sounds like a Greek guy, Con Descending.

Is Khan not pronounced the same as Con?

I always thought a good name for an American TV Chat Show host would be Erika.

They could call the show, I Am Erika (get it? I America)?

I made that one up years ago. I don't know why no one's thought of it.

Punny!

Here, Con is pronounced like on. As in, "The light is on".

Khan in Australia sounds like I think Americans would pronounce Con. With an aaah sound. Not an o.

I would pronounce Khan to rhyme with on. But I could be wrong.
