>> As some old timers used to say, Beck “is touched in the head” <<
Where I come from, the old timers said “tetched” in the head. But yeah, I know what you mean. And I agree.
I almost used “tetched” but didn’t think many or any would recognize it. Glad you did. :)
A lot of the old words and phrases are going away and it’s a shame.
Pretty soon there won’t be any left. Pertinear (sp) all are gone.
As my Okie friend used to say, “Every now and again you run into someone who just ain’t right, that boy right there is tetched. He’s a Jonah. Ain’t nothing to do but throw him over.”
