as a Scot who left the country many years ago i find myself remembering my family conversations,i often wish some of my siblings were still around to help me remember just how” broad” we were when we spoke ,seeing some of the words in your slang word of the day does just that for me,i recall my teacher in Moray House saying to us one day ..”leave your slang outside the school ”
we thought we were talking English i guess ,anyways i love to recall my family conversations on people and events it was a beautiful “language” and a word could say so much..thank you for this page .

My thanks as well. Allowed us to fix a 3rd party app’s database which was just SQLite with a company-specific file extension.

I finally bit the bullet and grabbed Streetlight Manifesto’s latest album for $5 off Amazon’s MP3 store — why didn’t y’all tell me that they are Catch-22 reincarnated?

If I had to give their sound a description, I would categorize them as possessing the vocals and rhythms of early Goldfinger or Buck-o-Nine with a horn sensibility that sounds incredibly like Less Than Jake.
