: : I can totally relate to you! When I was young, I couldn't say words with "U's". Therefore, "ambulence" was ambla-lince, and, like the title, Dracula was Drac-la-la. Ahhhh, well. Better than my dad. He called hospitals "horse-piddles"!!!

In Germany, we had our own childhood jargon. In our family,
mice were called 'yeemees' and cough syrup was 'dynamite juice'!!!
And when we were warm and comfortable, we were 'choosty'!!!
WE were wierd (and cool)!!!
