I guess I am being a little picky, but hey - I'm an English teacher. It's all I've got. Smile

Speaking of etymology, though, just last week one of my students overheard another wondering aloud about the origin of a certain Yup'ik word. She delivered a rather imperious (and misinformed) lecture to her classmate on the entomology of the word.

I very nearly shat.

It's a portmanteau of "chill out" and "relax".
