Doggone it is what I say when I lock my keys in the car, doggone it is what I say when I missed a touchdown being scored from my favorite team.

Doggone it is not what I say when I know the poison I am playing with has the ability (and desire) to take away everything of value to me, and possibly my family, my health and my life. Just sayin dude.
