Exactly! I was trying to think of another one, and that's it! Wow! We say rewf, here, but some people say ruhf. But "roofer" (rewfer) also sounds like doggie talk. Roofer. And then you get the verb, Rufus, or roof us. Frankly, I think that being the macho sissy-butts they are, roofers would rather be ruhfers (roughers) than little moondoggies. And people here say ruhvs, plural, rather than rooooves, plural, because rewhves sounds a little silly or weird. "Like, you ar so rewhve." But some people say rewf single and ruhves plural, and I think those people are lizardbelly flipfloppers, flat out cheaters. Although I have joined their camp as a matter of convenience. Just because rooooves is hard to spit out there. I admit rhuv is a peculiar word. Like the Medieval doink. I think, if I had a Roofing Company? I would call it Moon-Doggie Roofers. Could put a nice painting on the door of the truck and the bizness cards. That's quite an opportunity for me to pass up. Still, someone else could use Rufus Roofing, if I decide to use Moon, or Reverend Moon-Doggies Roofing.

I know that if somebody says they have a creek in their neck, they're in trouble.

<<People up my way often say krik too... >> My God how often do I have to straighten you Canadians oot, eh? It's crick, as in cricket. A crick is a creek that can't do the straight and narrow. Out becomes oot up North. In Alabama oil becomes ool. U seems to die off going North or South. Must be too many owls going oo ooo.
