I'm shocked Ok, whoa, right now. First--I was blushing for my ignorance of the origin of the word moxie, and even more, later, when I realized I probably should have said I thought it was a Yiddish word. Secondly--I have just discovered, thanks to a special friend, that the word spunk has a completely different interpretation in England, of which I was entirely unaware. So I don't feel the need to be embarrassed on account of that.
