dialectal "from the home" /of the home

[Marsha Alley]

I'm sorry...I just have to tell Jonathan he made me LOL for real this dreary rainy morn.  Thank you!

Reminds me of a bar fight I got myself stuck in the middle of in Austin in '96.  Two women fighting over a cowboy.  Lordy, I thought I'd never get out in one piece - knives, broken beer bottles, handfuls of hair!  And the band played on, of course, just louder than before!  :-)

  The Chief says, "What in blazes is this?  I call the Texas Rangers to put down a riot and all they send is ONE little ol' Ranger?"

  The Ranger shifts his chaw from one side to the other, squirts a brown stream o' juice, an' he says, "Hell, they's only ONE little ol' riot, ain't they?"
