because ST knows everything ... has everyone heard of a "spicket" before? i'm wanting to use it in a document, but spell check has it underlined, and - i'm not dead yet ! Jul 5, 11:35 13
- A little Hispanic. -- nm - Mop (190 lbs) Jul 5, 11:46 5
  - Or the Hispanic version of f*ggot. -- nm - nubby, Astro-lord, Kemosabe Jul 5, 11:48 1
    - or a "spink". (that's gross) -- nm - Beryllium Jul 5, 12:01
  - i think you zeited that up -- nm - charlie Jul 5, 11:48
  - (that ain't right ... i'm not saying it's wrong, but that ain't right) :) -- nm - i'm not dead yet ! Jul 5, 11:48 1
    - Everyone should have a little Hispanic in them. -- nm - Mop (190 lbs) Jul 5, 11:51
- spigot? -- nm - charlie Jul 5, 11:35 6
  - yeah, i reckon that works. The Southerner in me wants to say "spicket" though .... - i'm not dead yet ! Jul 5, 11:40 4
    - Like what, a white spicket fence? -- nm - Beryllium Jul 5, 11:42

        I think it would have worked better if they kept the book's structure. -- nm - nubby, Astro-lord, Kemosabe Jul 5, 11:49 3
