Chechokohs? Sourdoughs? What the fuck is she talking about?

* Did you watch the goodbye speech of Sarah Palin? I can not get over how unintelligible she is. The entire time I'm watching it, I'm imagining what Tina Fey would do with this debacle of a resignation speech. What's a "chechokoh" and what does it have to do with sour bread? The "frozen road" soaring over "nature's show" of "frigid fog" and soaring through the "midnight sun". WTF?
Ugh, I'm so done with her. I can only hope she fades into that midnight sun and spends the rest of her years rocking quietly in her porch chair as she waves across the strait at Putin.

UPDATE: Evidently Chechahco, more commonly spelled cheechako, is a Chinook Jargon word for "newcomer" and Sourdough was an experienced Klondike miner. Who knew. Nonetheless, her berating of "tiny, very talented, Hollywood starlets" was a bit ridiculous. Let's face it, Ashley Judd isn't "very" talented.

Let's make it a point this next year to try and use the word chechokoh in staff meetings or in the lounge next year. Especially if there are Republicans within earshot.
