Message: [QUOTE="pinotbear, post: 2713455, member: 258"] My Great Aunt Kathryn was an Irish old-maid school teacher from Worcester. As she was born in the early 1890's, married women were not permitted to teach in those days. She came to visit us once, after we'd moved to Louisville, KY. One of our little neighborhood child friends, upon meeting my Great Aunt, shyly drawled, "oh, this must be yore Ant Kathryn." My most dignified Great Aunt drew herself up and stiffly replied, "An ant is a bug what walks!" As you can imagine, that reply has been part of the family lore for, oh, 50+ years now.... [/QUOTE]
