I came from a place where we parked our car at Harvard Yard...growing up what some call 'pop' we called tonic

when someone says 'ya'll' to me, I still look around to see if my whole family followed me into the store

I have aunts....never had a 'ant'

and the liquor stores were all referred to as 'packies'....we never made a U-Turn...we "banged a youee"

and roundabout were called rotaries
