I don't think the vigar that got Mrs Clinton's little boy Billy into trouble was only 5c ...

Well, there's the problem then.
And who is this Billy you're talking about? The former POTUS's mother's name was Mrs. Kelley.

Talk about topical drift! from condoms to coffee to the pres. Oh, I guess that isn't so much a drift as a full circle.

And it stands for - Peck Of Trouble, Usually Serious. Faldo, I knew that Billy was a bast... that his mother had several "marriages" and that her name was Kelley. But it's a good line and I wasn't about to spoil it. You do that for me just fine!

The "vigar" is not obsessed with condoms. Rather, the vicar received e-mail from a chum in Lincs which used the euphemism "french letter" for condom and merely wondered, as all us word types often wonder, why we say it like that.
Should you prefer me to redirect this thread to a more refined (and even ecclesiological) subject, I am ready to speak to why the little silver bowl used to catch the water with which the celebrant rinses his fingers before mass is called "lavabo" ... but that might not be as interesting to as many.

Would that make it a chain-letter, then?

re: to why the little silver bowl...is called "lavabo" cause it is used to wash and the latin root in the word, lav means to wash? and can be found in lavage, (a medical term for washing a wound) or lavatory (a place to wash), even lavender (an aromatic, whose oil was used to wash). but what a about lavasious? or do you want to wash your hand of that?
