[stylist] A fun article on how language has changed in our lifetimes

[Joanne Alongi]

My teacher in elementary school used to say heavens to Betsy :-) and another one of my teachers said oh my stars. So, reading this article was definitely fun.hubba hubba I always heard that on the honeymooners but never anywhere else. Brought back some memories all of these :-)

> Donna, this is absolutely wonderful! I remember hearing all of those words in my childhood, even using some of them.  Now some words from my youth have been adapted and are used in our society.  Don't get uptight.  Yes, I still hear that word used sometimes.  How descriptive of somebody tense and anxious.  I even heard, the other day someone use the expression: Don't get bent out of shape".  Wow! Hadn't heard that one for a long time! Lol.  Remember out of sight? (No, it did not mean blind).  Lol.  I still find myself from time to time saying, "that's far out".  Yup, I date myself, don't I? (Grin).    DEBBY and  Nova
