I remember the first time one of my dearest friends referred to me as “boo”. That had to be way back in the late 80’s early 90’s. Today everyone knows what boo means. It’s a term of endearment, it’s a way of letting someone know that you like them. For example if I run into you at the mall and I shout out “Hey Boo!” You know I’m saying, “ glad to see you, you’re looking good and I like you” and a bunch of other good stuff all wrapped up into one neat little 3-letter package – B-O-O!...Remember Mo’Nique when she was on the Parker’s? Whenever her character Nikki Parker saw Professor Stanley Oglevee she would say, “Hey Boo!”
