    another question is do you say "Jate-O" or Jade-O" (like it's spelled with a "d"). I know I usualy do. lol
    If a person can't carry a tune in a bucket, does that mean that a musician needs a bucket to carry a tune?

    I don't say "Jate-O" or "Jade-O", I usually say "Fast-As-****-O"

    Some one should re name this thread as "give us warning pointo's"

    As far as the pronunciation goes I say it Jay-Toe.

    just cause someone says retarted doesnt mean there makin fun of someone with special needs(someone who acutally cant control somethings they do) most people use retarted as another word for dumb, stupid, or not working correctly.no offence tho but if it bothers you then dont read it.i dont know about you but i live in america and i excercise my freedom of speach and i dont appoligise if i feel im correct in the situation and i dont think anyone should get warning points for saying retarded because someone might find it offensive .i also think that no one should be afraid to speak there mind because there are people who die every day defending your rights to say and do as you please as long as you obey they law.and the one thing that makes me mad is that someone says there offended by some word cause then it starts a chain reaction of people afraid to say something cause its not policaly correct or it might offend someone.id say getover it or dont read it.

    i pronounce it Jato with the english j sound opposied to the spanish j/h sound.

    I pronounce Jato Jah-Toe, just like I pronounce Revo Reh-voe. Not Reeee-Vo like most people do.

    I just figure Revolutionary without hte lutionary

    For Jato I dunno...I just think Jah-toe sounds right.

    Pronunciation

    Me and my buddy have a bunch of aluminum parts on ours, and they are refered to as the Robo-Jahtoe. And when they get together, they are refered to as Broken-Jahtoes.

    It was the very first episode. He is talking about the REAL Jatos from the 50's. No they weren't real one because the military didn't want the public to have hands on rockets like that.
