Subject: Re: King's X



In answer to question 1, my friends and I growing up in South and Central

Texas in the 1950's said King's x. My two daughters, one 25 and the other

13, who grew up in Austin, know nothing of King's x. The 13 year-old says

"time out" or "times," meaning roughly what King's x did. I don't know if

King's x survives in rural areas in Texas, but it I don't think it is

common in cities in Texas, and may be gone altogether.

I have no info on question 2 and 3.
