Just thought I'd start a new joke section. First it was Favorite Flowers? Now I read you've been born and raised too. Thats an expression we use in New Orleans amongst the locals as a code between the locals, kind of like a secret handshake. The best response to prove that you really are from New Orleans would be: Yeah you right, or even better: How's ya mama? Worlds of Love, JLC the TTP

if someone says "I'm after *doing something*" don't be confused,it's not bad grammer.Or if someone calls you "Gas" don't be offended-it means you're funny.
Yeah you right.

Where do you come in with "Gas" never heard of it. Well maybe, is that what they mean in the Lyric "Jumping Jack Flash, You're a Gas Gas Gas?". Oh no, now you know, you're in the groove, with the folks down in N'awlins Dawlin'. Your an official "Yat" = short for people that run around saying "Where yat?" translated Where are you at? that's how you say Hello in N.O.
But really Mac Man, Mac-ster, the Mighty Mac, yeah that's the ticket, Mighty Mac,....How's ya mama?
I think they only go *after doing something* in Appalachia, though, here in Alabama, the exclamation " Listen at You ! " grammatically gets to me even now, after 10 years I've gotten used to people *fixin' to do something* but I never would myself. I would just go ahead and do it. WOL, JLC the TTP
