ZFG. In fact, I would prefer it. I'm Anglo Saxon.

I moved here from Alabama 7 years ago and I've been calling them counties ever since

East Baton Rouge County..doesn't sound right

Orleans County, nope

especially when many are Saint's, and Assumption, Ascension, etc

Not really. I could call my uncle my aunt tomorrow but he'd still have a wang.

I guess Bruce Jenner kind of ruined that statement for me but I'll still post it.

Reminds me of listening to Milo Hamilton do Astros games on the radio. Any time he would say a sentence that started with "if" (like "if the Astros hadn't left so many men on base, they would be ahead"), he would finish it with "but of course if my Aunt Sally had a mustache, then she would be my Uncle Bob". Always cracked me up. But in this day of PC and gender confusion, he would probably get in trouble for saying that.

Have we begun to argue about brake tags in this thread yet?

I wonder what would happen if Harry Caray were still doing games and talking about "Japs" playing in the big leagues

Good point. Ole Harry would have never survived in 2018 America with some of the things he said.

And for that matter, Skip would have probably been in "time out" a lot too.

"The bases are loaded....and I wish I was too"

I’m all for it. It’s silly we are 1/50.
