I could not vote for that one because I don't know what oakum
means ( dictionary taboo). I like the look of the word.

It can't possibly be any of these, or it's all but one of these.
So I'll guess c) because I want to call one of our local politicians that and because I had a Sam Adam Scotch Ale last night and it was great. (No offense j)).
Thanks all.

did you perhaps receive a bribe? Well, no, not this time; but now that you mention it, if future offerings were to be made, I might be persuaded... wink
