This is cool. I already use urbandictionary. I have a 17yr old. It's the only way to keep up with their lingo. I passed the sports one on to my brother, and oldest son. Thanks for all the fun info. You may be a Geek, but Geeks know where to find the answers.

Great blog --- very informative. LOL, Feisty! I guess I'm a geek, too. :(

Thanks for the one about drug interactions. The DR. has my mother on so many medications, and she can't tell us if she feels a reaction, or they make her feel sick. We have to guess about almost everything with her. This will come in very handy.

getting tired of us asking? what fun is this?:)

LOL @ feisty

Steve - I love you to death but you are SUCH a geek!
