Der-Tuh-Derrrrr

Cheerleaders have cheers. Advertisers have slogans. But I have little sayings that I like to use whenever I’ve done something dumb.

I get a lot of practice.

For a while, it has been the “dumdum” song from the Cingular ads. You know: “Doot dooooo! Doot doot dooooo!”

But now my teenage daughter has taught me a new one. It reminds me of a happy, clueless little song a Southern animal character in a Disney cartoon movie would sing as he walks down the road, probably with a bucket stuck on one foot and his shirt buttoned up wrong:

DER – TUH – DERRRR!!!!

It’s so, so “me.”
