hey sinisters,
The Great Lakes picnic has a date! I hope everyone in the vicinity and around the world too began jumping about with pure happiness at reading jim's post. I did, but it wasn't true leaping and such b/c I am here at work and I'm trying to email inconspicuously.
And as I just blugeoned that word, it brings me to another subject. P F said I coined a new verb "geehaw." But I stood my ground, insisting that it was indeed a real word. And then doubt creeped in, and I thought, well maybe at least a slang word.
So I asked around, and I only received odd looks. So then I thought, well maybe its southern slang, so people in Michigan wouldn't be familiar with it. So I asked my good friend Heather. She had never heard of it either, but attempted to use it in a few sentences, which I found most entertaining.....
the Amy definition for GEEHAW(v)- matches up perfectly, doing so without any problems.
ex. A date was finally set for the Great Lakes picnic, on September 1, a day that geehaws with most area sinsterites.
And that just lovelyly segues into the next exciting topic.
