It's really military slang, it's really "procedure words"(shortened to prowords). Like saying OVER on the radio to let the other guy know your done talking and he can respond, etc.
In the case of "kush," refers to where it was found in the Hindu-kush mountains in Afghanistan. It also describes a particular strain, usually indica. it's just a shortened way of saying "High grade stuff," like you found out, although it's more of a code word than anything else.
I hope that kind of clears it up a bit. If not, there is a better explanation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procedure_word
Well, I give up talking about my truck to people unless it's to my mechanic friends. I start spouting off things like CPS and IPR and people just give me a blank stare.
Don't give up haha!

That's my favorite part about visiting with Aaron and Thomas lol. We can go hog wild on the diesel talk and know what the others talking about.
In these parts its Chevy country so the Ford Powerstroke talk is nearly non-existent. I try to get my fill when I can lol

Dan, a proword are words or phrases used in communicating by conveying information in a condensed form.

That's a great explanation, plus, I now know what the "kush" I'm talking about with my kids. Just to clarify, none of my kids uses drugs - they just like the word and use it for just about everything. I tell them to go empty the dishwasher and they say, "Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuush". lol

Those are some of the best commercials out there, in my opinion. I love this guy!
I really don't drink very often, but as it just so happens, an "Apple Pie" was the last drink I think I had (probably 6 weeks ago). It was an Angry Orchard Apple Ale with a shot of fireball whiskey in it. Holy cow. That stuff is good! Dangerous too, I'd say. Though I'm not prone to over drinking I can see how it would be easy to just keep swilling that stuff. Tastes just like a slice of apple pie.
Then again...
I guess my thing is that if I'm not going to drink all that often, I might as well try something new or drink something that I know I like when I do! It's more of a treat for me than it is a habit. I think that same night, I also had a Leffe Blonde as well. (Bill should have a good time with this one.... lol.) Generally I'm just drinking water or sweet tea.

Leffe is good stuff. I had a couple when I was in Belgium. And Heffewiesen was my main go-to in Germany I miss Euro beer. Those kinds of beer here in the states though are a sip and relax, not pop the top and chug!

Yeah I'm not much on the drinks either, a lot of my friends that's all they like to do, but not me.
I to was amazed at how family oriented rre is, sometimes you never know when you go to an event like that what to expect. Everyone was very kind and respectable, really looking forward to going again.
And I hear you to on the Powerstroke talk JP, no one around here where I'm at has any clue either, so it's refreshing to get together with a few guys who know what's up. Lol
