Well, pity the party looks to be winding down, I didn't even get to run with the linguistic craziness that poules d'eau, number five in The Cajun Twelve Days Of Christmas, ran through over time, coming from the French for "water hen" in the very early 1700's, then into the black/Creole dialect poodle-doo decades later, and then run back through the misinterpretations and misspellings, to end up almost back where it started, after the English got hold of it and turned it into puddle duck.

And then, there's Frank Zappa again, lol. He was a highly intelligent and very strange fellow. He very well could have known the origin of poodle doo, lol. I'm not about to post those lyrics, though. We're still in prime time, the chilluns, don'tcha know.
