I'm going to take a few moments to wax poetically about life...I love this picture, it reminds me of "tough old broads" , broad in the good sense. We have a new member to our family, way out in Maine..a little girl, heck maybe some day she'll say of me "She's a Good O' Broad"..probably not. Not that I won't be one, just this slang term won't be used ...mmmmmmmm lets take a little look at slang.
from the 1920's - dead soldier : an empty beer bottle. still in use today
bee's knee's - an extraordinary person,thing,idea
western 1860's-1880's - beat the devil around the stump : to evade responisibility or a difficult task
more up to date schmuck : jerk
totaled : completely wrecked
cougar: older women who date younger men
nuke: cooking in a microwave
prairie dog : office workers who pop up out of thier cubicles. there is another meaning but it's kinda gross but cute...I'll tell you sometime...
go googie for more slang
picture is Hallmark cards
