>Did you notice how many of these definitions either directly and indirectly had to do with supper and suppertime?

did you not read my initial p.s. above, or.. what am I, minced meat? there is a more disturbing slant to put on all these, direct or indirect, connections you were not alone in noting: it may not have been the work of the collective unconscious at all, but rather the work of the individual... heaven forfend... google. not that that's against the arbitrary and capricious (but non-existent) roolz or anything. so, I think I will not be awarding any R+ points.
