heee - yeah, depending on, oh, how your nasal passage is constructed i suppose, it could be anything from "chi-KOG-go" to "chi-KAYG-go" to "chi-KAAH-go"....and so forth. though oddly people here tell me i have a michigan accent - never thought it was that much different from any of the rest of the Midwest, but hey.

love your hilarious, stream-of-consciousnessish essay! good luck with applying.
