Ingrate ???? Is that a Southern Term ?? Doed that have anything to do with a rodent or an inmate ??

8>)) I don't know about it being southern, but it just means someone who is ungrateful. If anything, I might have thought it was an old Aggie term. Heard my father say it. I used to think some things he said were German words, like "gunwadden" for bread, "cush" for dressing, "Pootie" for turkey, etc. That was when I was small. There was also "skyjuice" for water. Then, later, I saw "We've Never Been Licked", an old movie about Texas A&M with Robert Mitchum, Noah Beery Jr., etc., and heard them using those terms in the movie.

OK, I never heard it before. I can tell you almost all of them being a former truck driver who use to run NY and NJ. They would roll their windows down and say words when I ran them off the road. Some of them I know you never heard in the South ! Kevin
