Don't let me stop you. I work for a non-profit whose very name is a building pun - Building Future Builders.

An easy set up, making cracks about concrete, but it is fun to mix it up. So, keep chipping away at it!
I believe my first computer had a cement drive.

Would that be a "SEA-mint" drive, or a "suh-MENT" drive, I wonder?

Skinem is from E. Tennessee; so I would guess the former rather than the latter.

Of course it's a Sea-ment drive, what other kinds are there?
these homeowners don't know the difference between cement and concrete, so why should they pronounce it gud?
