BismarckC Posted September 12, 2003 Share Posted September 12, 2003 It is my understanding that "weeeedoggie" generally involves cattle andd horses west of the Mississippi River. Or a Western movie. I lived in Alabama before Mississippi and the term is not local. Welcome to the Magnolia State. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Singlestack Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 I think "weeeedoggie" might just be a "Hills of Tennassee" thing. I do seem to remember "Unc'a Jed" using the term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhgtyre Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 Singlestack caught me. I was thinking of The Beverly Hillbillies when I typed that and I am from the hills of Middle Tennessee. Now if I could only find a decent catfish joint here in Arizona..... -ld Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Love Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 I grew up in Mississippi.. other vernacular you'll need to know: "Would you like a Coke?" This really means any brand of soda. Someone about to go shopping might say "I'm gonna ease down to the store". Someone living north of you might say "Come down and see us". Someone ready to buy a vehicle might say "I'm fixin' to buy me a car". 'Fixin' means someone is about to do anything.. "I'm fixin' to ease down to Walmart". Although not heard often anymore, I recall variations of the word "juke", only spoken and never written, which is applied to the act of stabbing someone.. it can be pronounced several ways, as in "that dude juk'd him in the neck" (rhymes with booked)... also "...dude joog'd 'im twice't in the stomach (sounds like it looks.. to 'joog')... and finally "...juke 'im 'fore he gits away" (also sounds like it looks.. 'juke'). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Run n Gun Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 That’s great news (I hope)! Three weeks to plan and execute an interstate move… whew, are you going to be busy! Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shooter Grrl Posted September 23, 2003 Author Share Posted September 23, 2003 I don't have to do anything but pack up my clothes and cats and get in the truck. The relocation specialist is taking care of the move - we are going with the storage for 2 months option while we find someplace there.
