You could call the Scooter Store and try to get a free scooter or powerchair at no cost to you. Nobody works harder to get a free scooter delivered to your home. They're the mobility experts.

Dear kcochran,

You should leave big animated gifs on all of your myspace friends' pages.  You should also write a poem about how awesome I am. If you have TON of time to be bored, come to NYC and visit me. :)

Love,
jammie

PS - I also recommend calling rbcp and finally having lunch with him.  He also eats dinner (err.. I think he calls it "supper") as far as I know.

Dear jammie,

Love, kcochran

Dear mrpeanut,

You lie.  rbcp is the only person that uses the word "supper" anymore in any pronunciation.

Love,
jammie

We say supper in Indiana too. I didn't realize it was a dialectel difference though. I thought it was just to-may-to to-mah-to.

For the record, Brad deleted your post, not me  :o  I WOULD NEVER LOWER MY OWN BOARD POST COUNT.

As for "supp-AH," they say everything like that in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.  It's all that crazy "Departed" accent.   And for some more on the word supper (kind of interesting actually) go here:

That I can speak from experience is not true.  I go up to Boston and Rhode Island a lot, and one of my best friends actually moved to NYC from Rhode Island (Bristol) to become an actor and had the hardest time losing his accent... definitely not from the poorest areas.  It's just the accent that a lot of people have there.  In fact, I had a friend that moved up to Buffalo for a few years and picked it up there too.  Likely it's just a bit thicker in the poorer areas.

Ive lived in worcester/providence my whole life. I have no sweet accent.

It's the parents that give the kids an accent.

Poor people are too dumb to realize they shouldn't use words like aint, bubbler and supper around young kids.

Also, benny's and preggers are very poor words.

Supper's what dinner was originally called. Supper was dinner and dinner was lunch. And minorities were in control! NOT!

Dinner is dinner.

And beef is what's for dinner.
