Are we jibing? or are you jivin'? I mentioned in another thread that I'm medicated and I really am, been sick as a dog all week and now my holiday weekend is screwed so i'm a little off track to say the least, but my blessings to all and to all a good night...no jivin'
Tell that to the Bee Gee's who had a big hit with "Jive Talking". You ain't nuthin' but a jive turkey.
There is no argument that the word "jive" is a valid word, I'm saying that Peoples opinions don't "jive" they "jibe"! I ain't such a sucka ass chump to think jive ain't no real slang, ya heard!
