Oh, see...that drives me bonkers, when folks substitute the long a sound with a short e sound. (I'm not sure I'm describing this correctly...I dropped my phonetics class in college. HATED it!)

Oh yes, it's Crayg!

eta: At the liquor store yesterday (ahem, um, er...) I heard the cashier telling everyone and their dog where she gets her 'nells' done. Over and over. "Oh, I won't let anyone else do my nells. I like how blahblah does my nells. I get my nells done every 2 weeks." It was like fingernells on a chalkboard.
