POP QUIZ!!

It's class reunion time in many parts of my locale, and I know a few people who are in shock at the number of the year-th of their graduation from high school. "This is my WHAT-th reunion??"

Yeah, when that number gets up there in the NNth area, folks start wondering if they're--ahem--getting old-er. So today, Thursday's Child is going to take you back to your youth. We're going to have a Pop Quiz!!

-----

Since quizzes are all about what you remember, you'll feel right at home. Ready? Here goes:

In a few words, write down (or say out loud) what you remember each of these phrases means. You may have to remember what they meant in days long gone by, because a few have faded almost into oblivion.

1. Wet your whistle
2. Take a load off
3. Park it
4. What's your poison?
5. Can't stand it
6. That's all she wrote
7. Don't know him from Adam's off ox
8. Go soak your head
9. Who do you think you are, anyway?
10. Took a shine to
11. Dry behind the ears
12. Fair to middlin'
13. Have a spell
14. Set a spell

-----

Next time, you'll get the answers/meanings/whatever. And, Fair Warning: keep your mind sharp--there'll be another Pop Quiz one of these days.

If you're headed out for a class reunion, enjoy the whole shebang. Even if you don't recognize people. Or even worse--if they don't recognize you!

Blessings,

Thursday's Child
