Just got home. (Okay, well, I posted in **twicks’s** Feud first…but then I came straight here!)

I knew my conch-less butt wouldn’t do well on this one. You know, I was kinda shocked at “conch”, since you only ever see them in tropical-island-type movies. I wondered whether to say “clam” or “scallop” since food is always popular. But “conch”?

So I asked my roommate, quick, name a seashell! She said “conch”. First time I’ve ever heard that word out loud, instead of in a book. Who knew it loomed so large?

**Larry Borgia** , I think we have the same problem with my Feuds. 😉

Thanks very much, **Dolores Reborn!** You utterly rock once again.
