But I Go by Fuku

By drew on April 22, 2008

Tonight, moments ago, Emily and I slipped past Food Lion to pick up some baking supplies. (I found this recipe for oatmeal cookies that she claims "taste English." I had to grab some supplies to make another batch to give her that taste of home in her new home.) On the way out of the store an African-American young lady was peering out the front window talking on her cellphone. The brief phrase we heard her say proves my maxim that certain stringing of words together you never expect to hear, ever. She said,

 

"My real name's Laticia, but I go by Fuku."

 

Some phrases/words you just never expect to hear. Yay, never are you even able to come close to anticipating. Fuku, if you're out there, girl, on the worldwide interweb, I want to thank you for changing my life with that one utterance. Wow.

 

My next question is, if you were Laticia, would you want to go by your real name, or Fuku (pronounced foo-koo)?

Can Cold Water Clean Dishes?

By drew on February 25, 2008

This is thanks to Simon who swears that this is not a good representation of West
Virginians:

 

John went to visit his 90-year-old grandfather in a very secluded, rural area of West Virginia.
After spending a great evening chatting the night away, John's grandfather prepared breakfast of bacon, eggs and toast.

However, John noticed a film like substance on his plate, and questioned his grandfather asking, "Are these plates clean?"

His grandfather replied, "They're as clean as cold water can get em. Just you go ahead and finish your meal, Sonny!"

Being British

By drew on May 15, 2007

One of the British national daily newspapers is asking readers "what it means to be British?" Some of the emails are hilarious but this is one from a chap in Switzerland…
