Nawlns

The simplest form of 'New Orleans'. The closer you are to the city, the fewer syllables you use to name it. People in Tashkent say 'New Orleans', in Akron they say Nwawlins, in Beaumont 'Nawlins', and down home it's 'Nawlns'. There is a rumor that some inhabitants of worked out a way to say it with zero syllables, but this report is as yet unconfirmed.

'Ah fum Nawlns. Woa you fum?'
'Where are you going?' 'Nawlns'. 'Yeah, but like where you _going_, man?'

gage

Yet another synonym for marijuana. Also spelled 'gauge'. Probably from Sanskrit _ganja_. The term was most popular in the 1950s.

'Got to get some of that gage' said the old, indigent beatnik.
'Smokin and tokin, gage is my rage.'
