HELLO, all new DU'ers!
:hi:

In case y'all are confused about some of the lingo here, there is a Glossary of terms.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_oet&address=358x190

Anything you don't see there, just ask! And don't be shy about saying what you think just because you only have a few posts and some of us have 1000+.... 'cause mostly all we said in those posts was "K&R"!

===========

Welcome to DU!

:toast:

Gee, I never knew it was here, so some terms are now clarified for me, too!

Geez, there's even something for Clinton's penis. Eeeeuuuwh! And, isn't Pickles Laura Bush's maiden surname?

5. Pickles is Bush's pet name for Laura

which I'm not qualified to make fun of because my father's pet name for my mother was "Cabbage!"

I can remember being here for over a year and it taking me some time to figure out who "Pickles" or "Tweety" were. :silly:
