Todd,

Hehe, I didn't think about gumbands. I wasn't born here, so some of these I know, but don't use. My grandmother used gumbands exclusively. *s*

There are more I am sure, but a lot of them (gumbands is one), that I don't even realize they are local to Pittsburgh, just not what I normally say.

My cousins always made fun of me for how I talked, so I think I have a colloquellism-inferiority complex. *bg* I just assumed I was the wierd one when I was little for saying rubber bands instead of gumbands. :)

I HAVE been busted for talking about "jagger bushes" though instead of thorn bushes, so I have been picking them up! :)
