I've been known to spew beer at times like that. Our locals around here are not known to be the sharpest knives in the drawer. Pneumonia always comes out ammonia. The worst case of bastardizing the English lanquage was when two locals were comparing notes after a tornado. One guy said, "The wind was so strong it blew my TV Montana off the roof and into the Hi-Lex bushes" Hi-Lex was his word for Lilac. I'm not kidding either. It really happened not far from where I live.
