There's a sequence in Steve Martin's movie The Jerk where Steve and his character's father are in a barnyard, and the father pulls out some shoe polish and points alternately to a cow pie and the polish, saying, "Son, this is sh*t, and this is Shinola. *points* Sh*t. *points* Shinola." Steve repeats the sequence, and dad says, "Son, you're going to be OK".
I was just thinking about this, this morning when I started to feel a bit strange, kind of feverish and trembly, and I was reminded when my grandmother used to say she "had a spell". Really, I can't think of a better modern description for my symptoms.
My grandmother used to say, child you are too po, or you look like a broomstick. You had to be super duper skinny to get that though. Then she would be ready to make you a big plate of food.
I hear stoops being called stoops all the time. What else would you call a stoop?
