Funny words

I was thinking the other day about weird words.  How we don't pronounce things like they are spelled.
February... we say FebUary
Syrup... we say sUrup (well I don't but everyone else does)
Milk... some people say mElk
Groceries... we say GroSHUries

The other day I had so many more words, but of course now that I am writing this blog post I can't think of any.  So help me out. What other words have you noticed that we pronounce differently than they are spelled?
