Well, as I said, Cricket...I have many relatives that speak like that. And they're not stupid. They just don't know no better. And some of them did have teachers rapping their knuckles. But when you are surrounded by folks who speak that way, you take those inflections on. It don't bother me none. I seen it millions of times. I got me a lot of family members what do it.

No worries Dakatola. Once April realizes she's going home things will go downhill tonight. Yes, please give them alcohol!!

Dokatola, exactly about the ant spray. Considering how much they eat out there, I'm sure the ants are bad. Lajonesin, I think her drinking last night might be the reason she's so crabby today.

Well, Bee, just because they speak that way does not make it right! (jab..jab..) Heee Hee.. My sister and I grew up in Queens, NY - I've lived in Orlando for 25 years and made an intense effort to get rid of the NY accent. My sister makes no effort at all, and it drives me nutz!! She says 'seen' instead of saw, and 'terlet' instead of toilet. Drives me crazier than Keesha! I guess we all have our pet peeves, and this is one of mine!

Peeve on, Rose! This is one of the things I really love about discussing BB. We all have differing points of view. Ultimately, we learn from each other by discussing it. I like that. Now, I gots to go to the terlet and whilst I'm there, I'm gunna check me out my Fizz Eeek. I think I done lost me a pound or three last week.

Try moving from Illinois to the coal region of Pa. You can google Coal Speak. There is an actual dictionary.

When it comes to grammar, I think people do know better but it is hard to break old habits. My husband is extremely smart when it comes to grammar (he has an English degree) and I still catch him saying "ain't" and the like. I agree that it has to do with where we grow up but I also feel that we tend to resort to our old ways when we feel most comfortable. Keesha has probably become pretty comfortable around these people and that is why her grammar is getting worse.

Most of my family speak in a grammatically incorrect way. It's very easy for me to fall back into it. I speak that way for about an hour or so after I get off the phone with any of them. Gigi...I were using some similies in there but they wasn't workin' on me none. Point being, them pounds I thought I lost weren't near as gone as I had thunk. Do you understand? (You guys crack me up!)

Oh, thanks for asking, Suzs...I'm hoping the storm will be bad enough for our office to close, but not bad enough to do any damage! Yeah, I'm on that tightrope!! Ha! We are actually getting some outer bands in Central Florida, but so far it just looks like our normal summer rain. I think my company is waiting for the 5pm update to let us know....geeze..our South Florida offices have closed...what about us??? Whaaaaa!!

Good, Rose..glad all is ok and holding for now. So far it looks like the closest it's coming to us is Columbia. We will probably get lots of rain 'cause we're on the east side of the storm. Anyone in the path, let us know if you're ok..lol..
