On second thought, I wonder if I'm mispronouncing his name. Do you say "Crumb" or "Kroom". I always thought it was a "crumb" sound, but maybe I'm just a dumb - to rhyme - American.

Heh.

Hehe, yeah, I think you are going the dumb American route here. I always read it as rhyming with "room". I do have Eastern European roots, but who knows if I'm right.

I go with 'rhymes with rum', which means it's probably pronounced with a long 'u'...

He's kind of cute.

I don't like groom-room-zoom Krum.

I much prefer rum-Krum.

I'll stick with Krum and plug up my ears for the movie so as not to destroy all my illusions.
