Jane, he calls Nintendo "intendo." I don't know if it was clear.

The party had a dinosaur theme. I can write, but I am doing ten things at once, and it's been a Monday.

Vocabulary: it's interesting to see the terminology according to what part of the Country you are from.

For instance, in the South, my family called all soft drinks Coke. I still do that. My friends in College said Pop, and growing up on the West Coast, my friends said soft drink.

Speaking of accents, my friends from Philly have strong PA accents. Their daughter was born in Oklahoma, and lived there for one month before returning to PA, and I am sure that she will sound like she grew up in Philly.

It is funny to hear the accents when our sons and daugthers pick up on them.

This weekend, he sauntered up to me and sounded just like John Wayne, he greeted me. He was doing his best imitation.
