Thought some or all of you might get a laugh out of this site and learn something new about island speaking!
Hope you enjoy. The site would not allow me to cut and paste the vocabulary list but here is the link:

If you grew up here or have been here for eons, it sure brings back memories.
I sent the link to my sister who lives in STJ.
She emialed me back and said, "I got more than a laugh. Tears came form my eyes I was laughing so much."
