<p class=MsoNormal>It’s me again – Norm!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>With the weather being cold and rainy around my neck of the
woods, I have had a lot of time to think lately and there is something I am
trying to figure out. There is this word that Mom uses a lot and I
thought I knew what it meant but it doesn’t always mean the same
thing. The word is HEY!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>When Mom says “HEY – Knock it off!” –
that means quit doing whatever you are doing NOW. But lately, she has
said things like “HEY! – Do you want to get neutered without
benefit of anesthesia?” Now, what in the world does that
mean? Or “HEY! – Who do you think you are?”.
DUH – I am Norm! And this one “HEY! You are on
thin ice!” So – get me some skates!!! Another one
is “HEY! I am going to jerk a knot in your tail!”. Now
that sounds painful! But the most puzzling one is “HEY! I am going
to call Santa Claus!” What does that mean???!!!!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>So, Llewis – or anybody – can you help me
out??? What in the world does HEY really mean?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Drools to ya!<o:p></o:p></p>
