Around")
A Taw-dry response. Maybe it's just that callers were using "Paw" and
"Ma" and "mother in law" and picked a rhyming syllable and that was
all there was to it. Something that occurred in the big square dance boom years -- likely
untraceable to first use, but sort of a folk art development. Just thinking. Ridge
