yea - i have a total love affair with slang
the way language changes and evolves is part of what ties me to times and places...

hence my grip on pop and party store as essential parts of my history

on the flip side of the "what are the crazy kids talking about" reaction - i have a cranky reaction to the dot-comming of language that i hear every day... i know it's just more slang evolution - but gak!
