What is the Queen Vic ? I think the world seems a bit mad this morning. There was a gas line explosion in a town outside San Francisco CA USA last night. Our nephew lives in SF and I was calling his cell 6am our time 3am his and not getting an answer. I'm sure he's fine. A woman suspended from her job at a Kraft Foods plant here in town where I live returned last night with a .357 and killed two people. The police caught her. And then there's that minister in Florida, USA. Just madness. I don't want to be a chicken little, but I'm trying my best not to have to go out the house tomorrow. I don't want to be using public transportation. Yes, I think I'll have errands done today.

I know where to come to ask. Okay, was it limes or lemons British sailors would eat on long voyages to avoid scurvy (sp) ?

Thanks, Batty-b. I was sure that's from where what I believe the British see as derogatory nickname "Limey" came. I'm asking because there's a story on NPR this morning, played twice now, about an American teacher of economics, I believe was said. And twice now I've heard him say that he told his students about British prisoners back in the 1700s, I think it was, being taken to Australia and the sailors ate lemons. Same story, played twice, two times sending my shoulders to the lobes of my ears ... lol ... the twit... A teacher ! ... lol ... And here me a lowly lump and even I know it's limes. It's minor, I know, but it's still a bit of a dumbing down, isn't it ?

Lows levels of testosterone
![]() People realise how irrelevant it is for nearly everyone when they leave school, so they are trying to keep people interested by changing it. |
