That's no jumbo! Gotta go redd up the room now.

Of all the Burgh dialect I've taken with me, the one that other people have seemed to like the most is "nebby". My wife (from Wisconsin) absolutely loves the word because it describes her mother so well. :)

The thing I miss the most about Pittsburgh is eating Danny's Hoagies, which is out near the entrance to South Park. You just can't get anything like that anywhere else I've roamed. It's tops on our list when we go back, and whenever someone does go back they had better bring a couple back with them or else! :)
