Re: slang

Slang words have been you through out History. I don't guess we could call 
the men that fought in Bastonge (sp) The Battered B-----d of Bastonge. They 
may take offense. Course most are in their 80's if living.  Maybe Johnny Reb 
would get dander up. Yankee would be a cause of concern.
We are not even allowed to fly a rebel flag over a capital in the South. 
Afraid we will offend someone.

We may have had some names for the Korean soldier but it was a whole lot 
easier to say than Communist Chinese forces or some such thing  ED remembers 
Sanders shouting THEY're COMMING  We knew what He was shouting about. So now 
They're could be a no no word.

John 2 give it up no one feels sorry for you.  you make your own way in this 
life.
