What are you talking about?

Every family and group has their own language or sayings that are unique to them. When I first married into Rebecca's family I thought everybody had developed a slow leak. Every time you would say something funny or off-colored they would go "pssssshhhht". What the hell is that about? Around our house when you are talking to somebody and they go"huh?" Our reply is to say "chicken". If you are cold you are "fweezin." If you are really cold you are "supa fweezin." If it is really, really cold you are "supa party fweezin." I know,... We are idiots. At the fire station there is a whole other group of terms being used. When you are explaining an action that happened to you, you must qualify it with the phrase "minding my own business." Example: I was at the store the other day, minding my own business, and I ran into Harley.... Also when you are talking about somebody you must first qualify it by saying: Fuckin' (insert name here), that son of a bitch......... Example: Fuckin' DeMauro, that son of a bitch, he was telling me that his cousin..... It is not a derogatory comment, it is just language. I hope the turkey was good. I missed all of you. Kris

Well, the notebook must be home as you are back on the air. Won't the DeMauro fingers fit on a regular keyboard? I refuse to call them Fucking DeMauro fingers as some kid may read this and it would embarass the shit out of them. MUD

I know what you mean about each family having their language. When I brought my loud laugh and somewhat earthbound sense of humor into the Jackson clan, they looked at me like I sprouted an extra head.
Jay always thought I was funny though. Of course, he got paid to laugh at my jokes.
