Our newspaper read (I don't know if it still does, but I assume it does) "First newspaper west of the Alleghenies".
So I'm sitting at the table (a teenager) and tell my mom "hehe, we're the first paper west of the ... (let me spell it out the way I said it ...)a leg and knees!" I got a big kick out of that word!
No one ever told me anything in school about the Allegheny Mountains! Let alone how to pronounce it! Looks like 'a leg and knees' to me!
Also, I thought Socrates was 'so crates'....just like Bill & Ted.
Sometimes I don't know how I function!
