    1. [BSChat] LIMITED VOCABULARY

    3. Hi, Sheepers. Cuss words show a definite lack of vocabulary as well as no original thoughts to go with whatever little people do know. A pet peeve of mine is the person who continually says, "You know what I mean", and "you hear what I'm saying". I can't know and I can't hear cause the person has said absolutely nothing. Remember Judge Wapner? On one of his court TV broadcasts, a witness told the judge, "you know what I mean" - without a second's pause, the judge said, "No, that's what I want you to tell me, "what do you mean". The witness was stunned! I knew a gal that had - probably still has - a cesspool mouth. I doubt she even knew what she was saying was so ugly - it was her routine way of speaking - she was used to it. Have a great day! Shirley: bobert@i-1.net
