My grandmother, who's 82, is the queen of mispronunciation. It's not due to senility or anything; my mother reports that she's been like this for at least 53 years. There was recently a case in the headlines about a rather gruesome murder in the Delmarva coastal area. Since my family has always vacationed there, Grandma was very distraught upon hearing of the case. She called my mom. "Did you hear about that murder in Ocean City?" she asked. "They decembered the bodies and put them in the hamster."
