'Cliff Edwards (14 June 1895 – 17 July 1971), also known as "Ukelele Ike", was an American singer and musician who enjoyed considerable popularity in the 1920s and early 1930s, and also did voices for animated cartoons later in his career.

In 1939 Edwards played the character "Edicott" in the screwball comedy film His Girl Friday. Edwards voice was also featured in two other films that year; he voiced the dying Confederate soldier in Gone with the Wind, and, most famously, the character Jiminy Cricket in Walt Disney's Pinocchio. In 1941, he voiced the head crow in Disney's Dumbo.'

jiminy cricket!!! that's the other one i use!! i knew there was something! thanks, ballpoint!

I like to use non-offensive analogs to "Jesus Christ." Usually I say "Jiminy Cricket" or "Jeezum Crow" or "Johnny Christmas." People find it amusing. I also try to say "dang" in place of "damn".

Has anyone else noticed a large trend towards North Americans calling stuff "shite" like the british do? I know that it is huge here in Canada in the past few years.
