And did your Meemaw call you Moon Pie?

i just heard an entertaining exchange in the coffee shop across from my ofc. There's electioneering going on around Judiciary Sq today. The conversation was among African Americans, so it was in the patois of DC... the proprietor/mgr of the place said to a guy "i don't even know what Occupy DC IS.." and that's what caught my attention. He said, "why don't you tell me what it's about, bc you don't want to hear what I think they is..." at which point i RORed aloud! the other guy said "oh, you need to come down and see.." yada yada and the propietor said, "oh nah, i don't need to go down and see that mess, you need to be able to tell me what they is about!" So i was heartened to see that a probusiness black man knew what was what with THAT MESS.
