Heart okay, how do *YOU* pronounce it?

Hi folks,
So tell me (not like it really matters, I'm just curious...) How do ya'll pronounce Wisbar? Do you say "Whiz-Bar" or "Wise-Bar?"
I find myself pronouncing it the second way.
Yeah, I know.....goofy question! LOL!

"Whiz-Bar" sounds like a candy bar or something; also implies that you can "whiz" through your today screen, applications, etc in an efficient hurry! :)
