[stylist] Vejas pronunciation

[Bridgit Pollpeter]

Vejas,

Ah, Lithuanian. I dated a guy in high school whose family owned the
Lithuanian Bakery in Omaha, which is a big business here in Omaha. I
assumed (you know what they say about that, smile( the name was Latino
because it's similar to a name a friend of mine has. Oops, sorry. And
I'm part Russian, who knows, we could be distantly related, ha-ha!

Sincerely,
Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter

No, it's Lithuanian.  It's actually pronounced like a y.
For these of you who don't know, Lithuania is near Russia and 
Poland.
In fact, right now I'm e-mailing you in a house for which I just 
finished a Lithuanian christmas event.
