"Leopold" does not make scopes, binoculars, range finders, and spotting scopes. Leopold is a dude's first name. Leupold, a family name, on the other hand-makes all of the afore mentioned optical apparatuses(I know I spelt the plural of apparatus right on account of I dun looked it up).
I was at the shooting range yesterdee testing out some new airgun ammo and overheared a feller talkin about all a his Leopold scopes. I am not quite sure why, but I am allergic to this common mispronunciation and it makes me feel like I'm chewing egg shells! No grammar school edumacated person should commit this phonetic mistake. It is impolite to correct people on this issue in person, especially at a shooting range, so I am here letting off a little steam. It won't fix the problem(with me), but at least if you ever meet me in person, you will know where I stand on the issue.
No airgun shooters were harmed in the writing of this grievance, but I'm sure I'm about to get my gluteus maximus handed to me by all ya'll. If I help even one person with this thread, then the world will be a better place by 0.000000000000000000000000001%. If you caint laugh with me, then at least you can laugh at me. I come up with useless thoughts oncet in while, speshully on a rainy day when I aint got nuthin fun to do.
