Good morning, glory. & Good morning, sunshine.

0 I see no one has answered this yet, so I'll give it a try. I have never heard anyone say, "Good morning, glory" but I would assume it's sort of a pun or play on words - a "morning glory" is a type of flower. "Good morning, sunshine" is from a song, and would be a fairly common thing to say, especially to a child who was just waking up. I wouldn't use either expression with someone you don't

0Thanks, khoff. exactly what I thought, but hesitated to write! 050010id1

0 The expression is "What's the story, morning glory?" Said only to a woman, usually by a man who knows her very very well. Never use this with strangers. At least that's my take on it. 02br

00I heard the expression "Good morning, glory" on some TV show, I guess, and I wanted to know if it's a common expression. 02br

"Good Morning Glory" also comes from a song. Written in 1933 by Mack Gordon. I say it to my kids every morning. I first heard it in one of those old black and white cartoons whn I was a child, and it stuck.

Whats the story morning glory.

I'd say it's a pretty weird thing to say to someone unless you get the joke...

Whats the story morning glory is old slang from the sixties and you would say it someone waking up with a druggie hangover...morning glory plant seeds have small quantities of substances similar to the hallucinogenic drug LSD, and there was some experimenting going on wit

0 My dad always said......"Good Morning Glory! Do you think it will reindeer (rain dear)? Will the cabbage get ahead (a head)?" I don't know where it came from, probably something his mom said to him. We thought it was really funny when we were kids. It still makes me smile and although grown, my brother & sister and I still say it now and then. 0-

0"What's the story, morning glory?" is also used in a song in Bye Bye Birdie (I was in that one in high school). The stage version was in 1960, and the movie came out in 1963, so the drug reference wasn't the first one. (The erection meaning is certainly interesting!)02br

00There's a great scene when the kids are all telephoning each other with gossip about "Hugo" and "K

0It reminds me of the the thing with the states... I forget the whole exchange, but "What did Delaware?" (Della wear) "I don't know, Alaska!" (I'll ask her) was in there.0-

0I never heard Morning Glory except as a name of a rose. It is very pale pink, with a long stem and it does look glorious when it is erect but not fully ready with drops of morning dew on it.02br

00But, can I say to a man he's my sunshine if he's my sunshine?02br
