I also learned quite a bit, also have an Uncle Bob, and have been concerned about buying the farm while cycling! And methinks we’d engage in less war if our leaders were women, Amazonian or not! Just saying …
This was a joy! I learned quite a bit, as I was familiar with... absolutely none of these wonderful provided backstories. I love the quirky, arcane & ever-shifting qualities of language.
As do I! Language is such fun. It’s got constantly changing little puzzle pieces. And there’s always more to discover. I particularly liked the origin of the name “California”. Hello? Why don’t we know this??
I love this chick and I love this post!
¡Gracias, Kreeeeestul!! 💗
