I am stealing this from George Carlin, but I hear it al the time. If someone suddenly dies, or suddenly becomes ill, when people hear about it they inevitably say, "How could that be? I just saw him last week."
What does the speaker think that his or her having seen this person has a direct effect on longevity or good health?
"Io sono stanco, sono imbigliato, and I wan't everyone here to know, there ain't gonna be no trouble from me..Don Corleone..Cicc' a port!"

Oh, I know one that many people say all the time. It really bugs me for some reason. Where you at?When I was working at the school, if we needed to get the Principal or administrator on campus (we all had radios), we use the walkie talkie. I'd hear a co-worker get on and say "Where you at?". I don't know it's not major, but still it bugs. TIS

What about "Darling". Does anyone use that one????  I'd prefer sweetheart to darling (although I don't care for either) TIS

I wonder where the expression (and evidently soon to be Pacino movie) "You don't know Jack" come from???? Who's Jack? I was walking with my three year old grandson last week. He's full of questions and asks why, what to everything. I used the expression, "Holy cow" and he asked, "What's that mean grandma?" Try explaining that to a 3 year old.  TIS

Gee Oli, do you have a book handy of where these sayings originated?  Let's see, here's another? Where did the term "John Doe" come from? TIS

In old England John Doe began to be used as a substitute name in prosecutions and found its way to being the name of any unknown person. No TIS, I don't have a book handy, but I guess I've lived long enough now to have absorbed certain questions and answers.
