Wow. Maybe it is a regional thing, but I have always said "boogers," not "boogies." Hooray for Julie & Jackie.
My ex-friending happened today, so I am still reeling a bit. I was talking to an acquaintance at school, a fellow I have known for five years, who I briefly dated in high school and decided to "stay friends" with. He has always said that he was a Democrat, though "fiscally conservative." I mentioned that I had caucused for Obama, and he said, "I'm not a racist, but I would have a hard time voting for a black candidate."
Yuck. Is there any phrase more disgusting than "I'm not a racist, but"?
You're a ghost!
