I hate it when people post just to post.....

Your slangs are definitely hysterical...but in a great way! There's some newspaper headline that my brother put in his blog that makes absolutely no sense. Very funny! How far do you live from Sydney?

I will definitely call my brother a 'bogan'. Hopefully he'll get the slam! He used to live in Pittsburgh, PA. They say "you'ins" a lot so the slam is to be called a "yinzer" (sp). My realtor here is also from Pitt so I called him that after I heard it. His eyes got big and he said, "I most certainly am not!!!"

For my very unAmerican sports dislike is baseball. We have a saying, "That's as American as baseball, hot dogs, and apple pie." Yeah I'm good w/o any of those! And I'm southern and don't drink tea!

I'm a 3 hour drive from Sydney. I really love it there, but I'm a small(er) city girl and Sydney can be overwhelming at the best of times so I don't think I could live there.

My husband is VERY unAmerican then too. He hates baseball and football as much as I hate footy and cricket. We're a good match in that respect!

[Gracey 7]

That's funny! It seems like most American men like sports! Have you ever visited Chicago? It's a great city to visit; though I'm not sure that I could live there in the winter; brr!

Per wikipedia, Atlanta had an estimated population of 5.1M at of July 2006 and Sydney has an estimated pop of 4.3M. Atlanta doesn't seem that big but it's rather spread out. I guess I deal with a big city like others do by just hanging out in your neighborhood and around your workplace! I grew up in very small towns so I am enjoying living in the "big city."

That's awesome, She! As I have mentioned 1 gillion times, my brother is working in Sydney. I am so gonna call him an ocker!!! :tongue2:

I'll probably get in trouble for this but oh well: Speaking on for myself, I think of a hillbilly having few or no teeth, living in a trailer, up in the hills, HS dropout. A redneck has a HS degree, drives a pickup with a gun in the back window and may or may not have a rebel flag; he's usually just country, not illiterate!

You've described me to a tee!! Now if you'll excuse me, I have to watch "Hee-Haw"...I have it taped on my betamax.

I hate baseball. It's incredibly boring. Softball too. Naturally Mini-Mac loves softball and is actually quite good at it. I really have trouble convincing myself to go to her games.

So I'm up can't sleep ...

Me too.

I'm trying to get in more Water (I'm short today. Well, I'm short every day, but today I'm short on fluids.) and surfing the net.

[smsmithart 4]

I gave in but I made good choices to fill me up...I had a apple and a plum.

Hope I still make it to 162...

I'm thinking I need a small fill but I hate to pay 100 to get .25

[MacMadame 81]

Well, those are good choices. You need to do what it takes to be successful. But you probably know that already. :tongue2:

Good morning! 'Tis a grand Sunday morning; I'm enjoying my coffee, and the peace and quiet of the neighborhood. (The university crowd had some ritual football event and associated parties last night, so it is quiet now.)

Sports - dislike them.

SMSmithart - In my house, there is always something to clean, a closet to organize, a kitchen drawer to wash out....so no need for me to have idle hands.

She - Love learning new slang; wish I had some Aussie friends to impress wtih this new lingo! Is the same slang used for those from New Zealand? I'd love to visit both Au and NZ but the cost, sweet heavens, the cost!

Plain - is your truck also decorated with steer horns?

Cobbler - just the fruit please, with real whipped cream (not ice cream), please.

Luluc - Congrats on the run!

OK - am I caught up now?
