And then there's "draws" - a way of saying "drawers" (another term for underwear), but with a Southern drawl.

A Jewish friend of mines mother, who was originally from New York, use the term, and I'm only guessing on the spelling here, GODKAS. I'm wondering if these 2 terms are related.

Did that plug in via the cassette tape? My 66 Chevelle had only AM but I recall adding an under-dash cassette... and Moon rims!
IMPORTANT PSA: In my part of Canada the technical term for gutcheez was 'gonch'...
