No this post is not about 80's slang. Although I do know a man in my hometown who still talks like a surfer/skateboard dude from the 1980's. Oh well, to each his own.

(See my previous post https://godstillspeakstoday.com/2024/04/20/i-did-not-see-that-coming/) The state and county worked really hard to open a detour on a dirt county road to allow us access, twice a day.
