Do you pronounce the "L" in "palm"?

I was a little surprised to discover that according to Dictionary.com, pronouncing the “l” in “palm” is incorrect and the only acceptable pronunciation is to rhyme it with “bomb”. That is certainly not how I pronounce it or have ever pronounced it. Do I speak in some weird non-standard California dialect? How do you pronounce the words “palm”, “balm”, and “calm”? Because I say the “l” in all of them…
