For that matter, what about Chad? Any connection between the North African country and the popular name for Yuppie soccer-jock kids? ;) ;)

Who cares what came first...? What difference is it going to make?

Um...that was rather rude, 9_1_6! Mark was simply bringing up an interesting point between two words that mean totally different things but are spelled similarly in English.

To paraphrase a time-honored sentiment, "If you can't add anything constructive to a post, then don't post."

LOL, or for that matter, the problems with the voting at the Presidential Election of 2000 in Florida?

I always wondered how many male babies in Florida were christened "Chad" after that election! [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

And aspirin? It's good for pain, ok, but how does it know the difference in a headache and sore feet?

How does it know when your taking it for a heart attack?

Aspirin - "Well we could have saved him, but we went to the feet first by accident."

You want an odd think?

I just got to wondering why milk is white and not green since the cows are eating predominantly green things and not white things. And would we still drink it if it WAS green?

Why do Kamikaze pilots wear crash helmets.
Why is abbreviated such a long word.
Why is there only one monopolies commission.

I could go on....but I won't. ;)

You know I can decide which is odder, the fact that I don't find it odd you're'll asking these questions or the fact that I know the answers.

Yeah, but they didn't have Giblet Gravy or cranberry sauce, so it doesn't really count, now does it? ;) [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]
