Re: Club Level Kiddies (and SG Parents)
Never knew there were so many colorful terms for the heaves! Pretty funny! Oh, "Woof your cookies" is another one I forgot. I am not sure I want to hear the stories behind all the ways you have heard it Zazu, ALTHOUGH......they are probably pretty interesting... :D: You could share sometime...We would definitely read!

Hmmmm. I remember when I was in the navy, they used the term "making fish food" which, even today, makes me pause when ordering "fresh caught" when we dine out!!susislicker wrote:Never knew there were so many colorful terms for the heaves!

I think they kind of over did it, to the point that it stopped being "cool" and shifted into the "lame" department!

My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?
