I HATE HI | 2004-09-21

Speaking of nasal (below), one of my petty gripes is the fact that nobody says "Hey" any more. It's always Hi. When I complain about this, I always pronounce the "i"' in "Hi" through my nose, hard, to show its Yankee origin.

You see, I don't think about world affairs all the time. I can be an opinionated old bastard about a lot of stuff.

Hey Bob!

I live in Yankeeland, as you know, and rarely say "hi" up here, Most of those I know here in SE Ohio do the same. Probably helps that many are the descendants of Viginians.
