Sockrates

Da ancient Greek philosopher who liked to wear cloth coverings under his sandals. :P

Kinda hard to wear socks inside sandals with toe-posts --- I wonder if Sockrates invented the idea of the croc-style slippers?

opawesome

How you view small gray pointy-nosed prehensile-tailed marsupials if you're really "into them".

Red Green and his crudely-macho buddies must have considered their lodge-mascot animal to be really opawesome, since their meeting-opener motto --- Quando omni flunkus moritati --- translates to, "When all else fails, play dead."

redial refrain

The rapid little multi-note musical ditty that you hear when you press "redial" on a touch-tone phone.

I got a busy signal for three quarters of an hour before I finally got through to a live person in customer service --- here's a case where I am indeed glad dat my phone has auto-redial, but I got soooo tired of hearing dat 0%!$&#@ 11-note redial refrain over and over every half-minute!

summerize

To make a brief report regarding da "dog days" of June, July, and August.

I attended youth-camp, went swimming, ate watermelon, collected fireflies, and rode my bike on woods-trails. That pretty much summerizes it, I think.

relieable

Something dat da previously-forked-tongued Fletcher Reede no longer was after his son made a birthday wish dat he would only tell da truth for 24 hours.

If you never know whether someone is telling da truth or not, you therefore cannot count on him to be consistent "on either side of da fence --- i.e., he is neither reliable nor "relieable". So not only can he not be trusted to speak without deceit, but you also cannot be sure dat he will always tell falsehoods at da times when you would like him to, either.

terry stop

A brief detention dat da police perform on someone walking around town wrapped in just a towel or bath-robe.

One should securely pin his post-showering attire so dat said birthday-suit covering will stay "modestly" closed if he encounters any terry stops.
