    But I believe that your answers would be more entertaining (IE less boring) if you were to do so while drinking. :popcorn:

    Origin:
    1375–1425; Middle English quarey (noun) < Medieval Latin quareia, variant of quareria < Old French quarriere < Vulgar Latin *quadrāria place where stone is squared, derivative of Latin quadrāre to square

    Hmm, just learned something. It's good day.

    So, 16, how many rocks have you managed to set on fire or clog your toilet with?

    Thanks for clearing up my queries about quaries.

    Keith, I went backpacking in New Mexico and was advised to crap under large rocks to keep from animals rooting through it and eating it. Does this hurt the rock's feelings?

    Another time I was camping and threw a rock down at a tree and my friend walked out from behnd the tree and it smacked him in the head. My friend was fine but did we need to get the rock medical help?
