I have never seen a 'grey' duck, but have seen plenty of gray ducks. Nor have I seen a goose duck. But have known plenty of geese that wish they would have ducked.<br><br><br>Soda???<br>Is that not the thing you add to scotch? <p></p><i></i>

Re: ER
I think you can tell the approximate age of people with this one. In todays "politically correct" society, It's no longer okay to refer to a "color" ie: <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>Gray</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> duck<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rolleyes --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/eyes.gif ALT=":rolleyes"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> .<br><br>Thats where "goose" came into the picture. It's more politically correct to say "Duck, Duck, Goose", but it definately loses something, doesn't it!<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :\ --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/ohwell.gif ALT=":\"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p100.ezboard.com/bmnhs.showUserP ...

age old dispute
I dont know if its age or regional.<br><br>What I do know is that I never heard 'goose' until I was watching Regis' show 'Millionaire' a couple of years ago. <br> <br>If you never watched the show, theyd start out with like a 100$ question that was a no brainer and move up to a million.<br><br>Anyway, there was a 100$ question that asked the contestant to finish the phrase "duck, duck...." and then there were 4 choices (A,B,C or D)<br><br>NONE of them were 'gray duck'. One was 'goose' and the guy got it and they moved on.<br><br>I couldnt believe it. Age had nothing to do with it. I think the only place were gray duck is used is in Minnesota and only in certain parts.<br><br>Soda/pop is absolutely regional. You can walk into a store out East and ask a 60 year old guy where the pop is and he'll look at you like...... you're from Minnesota. Its Soda in most parts of the country. <p></p><i></i>

pop vs soda
Well, look at this website.<br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.popvssoda.com">www.popvssoda.com</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>i guess minnys not the only place pop is used, then again the discrepancy could be from people who moved out of minnesota. <p></p><i></i>

Re: oh and...
The reason I say age, is because I grew up with Gray Duck and guess what my kids played in school? You guessed it, GOOSE.<br><br>Go down south and ask for "Mayo" on your next sub sandwich. They will not know what your asking for.... <p></p><i></i>

Re: gray soda duck
I play duck, duck, goose. But I do remember playing with colors, where every time you tapped a person on the head they'd be a different color (purple goose, red goose, blue goose...) until you final got to goose.<br><br><br>And it's pop. <p>Much Love<br>-Cloquet</p><i></i>
Re: gray soda duck
