Huh, too bad.

I guess it could be worse.

People around here walk around with "Roots" (brand name) on their fashion garment chest area. This has an alternative mixed response down under in Australia.

Perhaps so...while it can be a slang term to mean "semen"--and not limited to the U.S. south--I took it to be a phonetic spelling of how the question word "what" typically sounds in informal, spoken English, where the final /t/ of "what" sounds more like a /d/. It's common...often written with 2 /d/ as in

Whaddup?
Waddle it be? (where the 'h' might get dropped as another sign of informality)

I've heard "What it be" pronounced with a /d/ instead of /t/ countless times. I've never thought of the slang meaning of the word in question...I've simply answered the question. Maybe the fact it's written with one /d/ is what brings up comment on the usage.

Appologies for the tangent away from the main topic. I took a lot of linguistics courses way back when, and we frequently studied crazy little details like this.

Guess I will have to add the "h" next time, as in "Whad".

Ah well.

But importantly, are the CB1100 battery woes resolved?
