Subject: "Babooshka"
"Babooshka" is, in fact, a term of endearment to a child, particularly a baby. It is related to the quasi-yiddish "Bubulah". But probably, "AHHHHhhyahhhh, baby baby baby ya ya" just didn't have that ring to it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pete Berger || ARPA: Pete.Berger@andrew.cmu.edu Professional Student || BITNET: R746PB1P@CMCCVB Carnegie-Mellon University || NEXUS@DRYCAS Do not attend this college. || UUCP: ...!harvard!andrew.cmu.edu!pb1p ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "If only I could/make a deal with god/and get him to swap our places..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------
