Too funny. Good thing he lost the beard, or they'd be begging him to be in the dang movie.

Took her awhile to decode. My kids are not supposed to "cuss" or the punishment is reddin up and runnin the "sweeper". One of my kids first non baby food meals was peorgies. My children have picked up only a few mispronounciations, like Mere for Mirror and Bloon, for balloon. Oh well I tried, I'm sure the Burgh will still have them come college time. ha Sue While walking with a Jeresy native friend I mentioned how my dog ran over to that “crick” and got full a “jaggers n at”.

Being from south 18th and Pius, it sometimes gets a little thick. I remember telling some other GIs a joke about money falling "dahn a sore". I litteraly had to spell sewer and was amazed that they had no idea what I was saying. Well, time to go shovel the driveway. It's all slippy an'at dere.

Dad has had Stiller tickets since '74 and I bleed black n goald. Recently my Mom was diagnosed with breast cancer so I am moving back to the area this spring to be near her while she fights it. Everyone I have talked to in my job search has been great and it pleases me to know how helpful and friendly a Yinzer can be. Looking forward to making the Golden Triangle my home. I am a realtor specializing in lofts / condos, so any info on the market would be helpful. Look for www.steelcitylofts.com, www.steelcityneighborhoods.com and www.dahntahn.com coming to Da 'Burgh soon. Special shout aht n'@ to PittGirl and this blog for keeping me informed while tickling my funny bone with a hammer.

Where's the ACLU when you need them?

I don't have the accent, but I love our words and I've intentionally worked on keeping them. If people try to make fun of me for it, I just say maybe they'd have some fun local words too, if they were from anyplace remotely special.
