Yes, I know a Laramie who pronounces it LAIR-a-mee.

Actually, that's pretty much exactly...
how it's pronounced by them what live there (Laramie, Wyoming). I work with two natives of the place.
To folks of my generation in the US, it also brings to mind a brand of make-them-yourself cigarettes that were sold as empty paper tubes, a tin of tobacco, and were put together with a little brown plastic machine. Not terribly good cigarettes, but they were a novelty to college kids in the early 70's, and the machine could be used to load, uh, OTHER smoking contents...
- Da.

Actually, the home-stuffed cigarettes were Laredos...
but for whatever reason back then (and now) I had a mental block about the name and usually called them Laramies. That's why "Laramie" brought them to mind. Hell, after 30 years, I'm lucky I can remember my name.

Laramie Hi-Tar cigarettes
Actually "Laramie Hi-Tars" have appeared in episodes of the Simpsons! The mind can play weird tricks, particularly to us who were around in the 70s :P
