    Between you and me and the gatepost, signifying confidentiality.

    Yet, sometimes a little birdie sitting on the gatepost will tattle!

    I kind of like malapropisms, McD.

    "Call Bob, Harry or myself." Only YOU can call yourself.

    When people say, "I could care less," I want to shout, "How MUCH less? Maybe you care quite a lot."

    I loved WKRP in Cincinnati. Les would say, "...and I use that word incorrectly."

    Fun thread Sylvia!

    Also, let's get the elephants straight.

    White elephant: an object no longer wanted by its owner.

    Pink elephant: seen by the inebriated.

    Elephant in the room: an obvious problem no one wants to talk about. I don't think its color matters.

    When I first saw the word hors devours, I pronounced it this way "Whores devours".

    I pronounced lasagna as la - sag- na.

    Edited to add the "s".

    My mother admitted to me once that she thought at one time parmesan was pronounced: par-meezhan.
