Never heard the term before...

Huh. Me nuther, but I'm stealing it. "You're nothing but a cockwomble!" ought to stop a lot of political arguments in their tracks...

Wow! Heavy duty! I tore up and fixed some offroad vehicles a few times and will always remember the thrill of long, narrow shelf roads at high elevations.

Interesting experience, backing down a shelf road for about 3 miles to let another vehicle through.

(For “cockwomble”, I at least knew right away that it wasn’t the same thing as a “pink-headed warbler”.) :-)

Good, because a “pink-headed cockwomble” might be a bit racy for FR. :)
