Phonetic Photo Puzzler #014
Instructions follow the image sequence.


This week, the answer is a 2-word phrase.
Instructions
Turn each image into a sound, and string these sounds together to make the answer.
They are already in the proper sequential order, top to bottom.
It usually helps to think of several possible sounds for each image, along with any tangential phonetic associations or pieces. Each image usually represents one or two syllables. These are the tidbits of answer that you collect.
Once the bits have been collected, you see what can be arranged...
I tend to use Wikipedia and Google image searches an awful lot to find these phonetic chunks, in case that helps.
Hint to be added on the weekend if no one has it yet.

Noooooooooo!
I had a horrible week at work. Still, that does not measure up to the horrible of THIS:
My favorite website (I honestly do think it makes #1 status, mostly because I'm addicted to etymology, but this site is serious fun even for the non-addict) is having a crisis.
The Online Etymology Dictionary at etymonline.com has recently had a horrible verdict of owing placed upon them by the IRS.
read about this at their home page
I am hoping that they will be able to overcome the horror, because the internet itself will lose a great, big, wonderful thing about it if this site goes down. If you are at all a fan of the website, or of word origins, please help them brainstorm a solution / donate to help the site survive.
