It is what it is. I'll deal with it.

Pop (for soda).

Went down the holler.

As happy as a dog rolling in his own poop.

From my West Virginia childhood.

We'll be renting in The Villages in January-March, 2015 and are hoping to run into fellow Mountaineers. I've had season football tickets for WVU football for decades and am a 1950 WVU Journalism graduate, 43-year newspaper editor (retired since 1996), have traveled to 50 countries, 2 U.S. territories and 43 states and taken 11 cruises.

My Bucket List is getting thin. The Villages, in December 2013, was on the list, too. Not any more.
My favorite saying in the world is "It is what it is, get over it !!" I say this almost every day LOL
