dad:
Shtick is not spelled "schtick".
Hammer:
Tell him that Websters' dictionary lists "schtick" as a variant of "shtick".
Todd:
That doesn't sound right:
http://dictionary.reference.com/search?db=*&q=schtick
All the sh/sch stuff in Yidish have the duel spellings:
http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=schmuck
http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=schlemiel&r=2
http://dictionary.reference.com/search?db=*&q=schmear
http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=schmooze
http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=Schtick
etc. etc.
