Okey-dokey and the variant okey-doke indeed mean O.K. and are simply playful versions of it. They did not, however, appear in print until the 1930’s, and while O.K. is now considered colloquial (i.e., fine for use in conversation and informal writing), these two variations of it are still slang.
Well, I just happen to be here in San Jose for a business trip (live in TN) and I’m considering going! I registered on Trump’s site for tickets. Questions for those of you who have been to his rallies: event is at 7, doors open at 4, my business meeting finishes at 5, so if I arrive at the event at 5:30, do you think I’ll get in? Also, how late do these events usually run? Thanks!!
Love these old phrases, they seem to stick in the back of my “craw.” Ha-ha
I was REALLY surprised to hear Intel CEO Brian Krzanich is backing Trump.
He setup a fund raiser and then someone got to him and he canceled.
Kennedy Space Center side??
Will last under an hour. Take time to get out !
Car traffic will be the big problem getting in. Don’t know the parking situation. May have a hike
I am assigning you the task of reminding us when the rally is one hour away. Please do not disappoint us.
Thanks for the ping!
Hope everyone is feeling okie doke this morning.

They are all corrupt. CBS This morning is almost non-stop negative stories on Trump. It used to be 2 a day, then 4, now it's like an anti-Trump infomercial.
LOL
Wow, there are so many of them, these bring back memories of friends and relatives that used them. Just cut and pasted to a word doc, you may see them popping up once in awhile.
New Georgia poll shows Trump beating #CrookedHillary in a General Election! Trump 49% Hillary 40%
Okie Doke is regional, I guess. It’s pretty common in parts of Texas. But I think there’s prolly a minimum age limit on its use. :-)
About that stuttering idiot... Has anyone tried to put a count on his stuttered “it” word? I tried multiple times, with no luck. I’ve never seen that before! That’s pretty bad when you can’t even word count it.
Thanks nikos. You are the “bee’s knees”.
