  I've said this on occasion, and recently too.  Nobody questioned it.

  I said this to a customer today and he said he'd never heard it before. =
  Come to think of it, I don't think I've heard anyone else say it since =
  my family died off. Any feedback from all y'all? (Sorry, couldn't =
  resist.)
