What in the sam hell is going on here

Sam Hill?


Sam Hill is an American English slang phrase, a euphemism or minced oath for "the devil" or "hell" personified, as in, "What in the Sam Hill is that?" Etymologist Michael Quinion and others date the expression back to the late 1830s; they and others consider the expression to have been a simple bowdlerization, with, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, an unknown origin.

So now the words just hold so much more promise in this moment, doesn't it?

We can all be a little smarter from here on out!


Thanks Phil!

Wow, 2005. Seems like forever ago. It was a great trip. That was when Saulo owned the Whale. Lol It may change hands again soon, don't know if we will keep it with having the CJ6 now.
 
actually the true origin of "what in the Sam Hill is going on" comes from the feud between the Hatfields and the McCoys. The attorney General of West Virginia Sam Hill was sent by the Governor to determine what was going on.
