Yes, it was definitely a 'Hunh?' face. ;)

I told him I could make him a loan and he could pay me back when we got back to Signal. ;) He looked at me like I'd lost my mind, so I explained it to him and that the appropriate response is that he ain't in the poorhouse. :D
I think he'll watch BBM with me soon...told him he'd have to if he ever wanted to understand half of what I'm talking about.

Hahahahha.....we reallly do have a language of our own now dont we.....?
Not one Brokie here would not have understood or got the humour of what you said to your friend....no explanation needed, we all just "get it".......
Oh yes, the visual of your friend's "Hunh" brings a smile to us all.

We are having a few days away, and we were looking for our holiday apartment when we arrived here yesterday..looking at the street signs......
One in particular caught my eye.....a sign pointing to the "Pentecostal church".....
First time I have ever seen anything about Pentecosal here in Ausralia.
Its amazing how a simple street sign can sitr the Brokeback emotions, when you are least expecting them.

That we do, Sue! :-*
I like your Pentecostal church sighting. I used to see them all the time in the Southeast US. I don't know why I never thought about it before, but when I got married, it was in a Methodist church. Huh.
