You know that neighbor across the street you meet at the mailbox? He's as sweet as can be and just plain "good people", but boy does he talk a lot.
If you don't know that neighbor...you can meet him at http://www.americanaccent.com/.
Click the button doo-hickey for "Mr Thingamajig" and he will tell about how all the brouhaha and shenanigans that can happen in just one morning. It's just chock-full of down-home sayings and idioms you know but had totally forgotten about.
Aren't these new-fangled gadgets gosh darned great?
P.S. I know some foreigners complain that Americans talk too much, but the fact is...it's sort of true.
