    Yes, more like that (something reproductive). :) That is interesting about the definition, but I agree - odd name.

    Will I get a free drink? :)

    Chicken fusilli is my favorite fast food item in the park. I just wish they still had the outdoor barbecue place, that was really great too.

    I do too! I think it's great. The food is good, and it stays open late, too.

    No two people can agree on everything, you know. But, sure, it'd be nice to meet with people. Maybe folks would see I'm not a monster.
