I must live in a protected neighborhood too, then, because I've never heard *anyone* say it (that I can recall), except perhaps when we were teenagers. Others may very well use it, but it doesn't occur with nearly the frequency you make it out to, unless amongst a very limited group. To me, it's the equivalent of "Drop dead." Not a very nice thing to say. Sal To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!' Yahoo!
