As my mother in law used to say whenever anybody said something good was going to happen, "Poo-poo-poo." I think it was supposed to ward off the Evil Eye. So, poo-poo-poo.

"Poo-poo-poo." I think it was supposed to ward off the Evil Eye.

Poo-poo-poo must have been the verbal equivalent of the little spit-spit-spit (kind of miming a spit) you were supposed to do, through your fingers in a V shape - the kaynahorah, the evil eye - the Yiddish "knock wood".

My elderly relatives always did that when they heard good news.

Yes, same mishagas. Just more Americanized!

Now there's a word I haven't heard in a long time. Mishagas, done by mishugunas.

Yup, but I have always been proud to be a bit mishugunah!
