OK, not even much point in recounting except to say 8-8.

By the way, "McCain's" in Canada is known as the biggest purveyor of frozen French Fries.

5) Sheepshank Knot would be a good name for a rock band but it is hard to say 10 times fast.

OK, I'll say #2

For the other q, I'll say #4, rectum. But let the record show that I said rectum with a disgusted look on my face, as I am a proper gentlemen.

I am not above saying Sheepshank, however.

This one is my fault, for actually doing research, rather than just using what comes to the top of my head.

All of the properties of the sheepshank knot are true. Depending on the various sites. The nice thing about the Net is that little animations of knot tying look a lot more comprehensible than diagrams do. I could almost become a boy scout again. Not.

The shank is above the foot or hoof. So no hoof found if the soup is well cooked.

Nimrod was a hunter in the Bible so I guess it means hunter

Yeh. Nimrod the hunter.
Didnt realize it was so biblical, I thought "mythical'.

And Jackie du Pré was the great cellist whose career was cut short by multiple sclerosis.

They played her first famous cello concerto recording this AM on CBC radio two.
