Do you mean kenobi? I was astonished when one of the campus cops pulled up this morning with the back of his SUV filled with kenobi plants they found growing between the rows in one of our corn fields. I wonder what the street value was!
I sure wouldn’t want any cannabis in my neighborhood. Every time I walked my dog, I’d have to be afraid someone would capture me, throw me in a pot, and literally have me for dinner that night!
There aren’t likely to be any cannibals around these days - ordnance switched over to high-explosive, armour-piercing or shrapnel shells over a hundred years ago.
Cannonballs? How did we all of a sudden start talking about a waterfall on the Skykomish River?
I don’t think Tennyson had the state of Washington in mind when he wrote that “The splendour falls on Canyon Falls” in the poem in which he implores “Blow, bugle, blow”.
Eh? No, Castle Walls is in Yorkshire - they have a Rugby League team nicknamed “the Tigers”, not to be confused with the Leicester Tigers who play Union.
No, a Castleford is not a tiger. It is a ratite, a very large flightless bird smaller than an ostrich or emu. And it’s not found in Yorkshire – it’s native to New Guinea.
I thought cassowary was the seed that gives rye bread its distinctive flavor.
You so crazy. Caraway is what Little Miss Muffet was eating when the spider frightened her away.
No, a curds and whey is what she would have performed if she’d met the Queen of Hearts!
That’s a curtsey, who once wrestled under the name Mr. Perfect.
Well, his hair and nails were perfect because **curthennig **is one tough fibrous protein.
Keratin isn’t tough and fibrous, it’s more of a combustible liquid. Something you would put in a lamp when you go camping.
Really? Doesn’t kerosene give carrots their colour?
Well, John F. Kennedy’s daughter Carotene might have colored some pictures of carrots when she was a child.
I doubt that his daughter ever wore a caroline. Skirts that need that kind of stiff petticoat underneath to hold their shape haven’t been in fashion for eons.
Actually, I think Caroline Kennedy might have had one of those skirts when she was a little girl. I can remember my sisters wearing skirts like that. They didn’t like them, and it made them really angry. You could see the blood rushing, their faces flushing, and the **crinoline **flowing as part of their fight or flight reflex.
While the Adrenaline was deigned to protect France in a protracted fight, it proved ultimately useless when the Germans decided to simply go around it and through Belgium instead.
And yet geography’s full of maginot lines - there’s the Equator, the meridians of longitude, the Tropics of Cancer and of Capricorn, and so on…
I wonder if your grasp of literature is as shaky as your geographic knowledge. Have you ever read Tennessee Williams’s play, The Glass Imaginary?
