Ant! Ant! Ant!
 
Hahahaha Rhonda! I was with you on gravy, but we've always said "ant". Very flat "A's" in Chicago. :laugh:

Hey, how the heck do you put up a poll??? I thought only Tal knew how to do that. You'll have to show me. :shrug:

Rokinronda 01-17-2009 08:06 PM

When you start a new thread, the poll "option" is below the post box, asking how many answers you want to be able to choose from. You click the poll box and how many answers. After you post, you complete the poll question answers and post.....Got it?? lol, I should probably show you in person someday! :evil6:

Neither One
 
Guess I'm the "odd one out", but where I come from, we pronounced it "ain't". Sorry, ya'll. (I had to say it out loud using my Aunt Mittie's name, and sure enough, it comes out "Ain't Mittie".

Thats a dilly, dilly!!:laugh:

Would be interesting to compare Easterners and Midwesterners. I think you'll find the flat "a" in the Midwest.

Et moi aussi, JoJo. La plume de ma tante est sur le table.

AND my ANT's pen is on the table.
