LOL! As the Sheldon Cooper character on The Big Bang Theory would say, "What fresh hell is this?" Our worst nightmare might be when Alexa, Google, Siri, and any other system all start talking together and plotting enough mischief to drive us nuts!

Disclaimer: Before sending any hate mail, be aware that I’m a 5th generation Texan from the Austin area. So I grew up in the 1960s with a lot of these phrases being used by my parent's generation. Think Gov. Ann Richards and the way she talked. Not exactly a southern accent, but more of a down home Texas draw. I still get a smile remembering all those phrases my Mom used to say.
