Apparently a true story:
I live near a river and in a county named 'Sangamon.' The story is that when French explorer Pere Marquette was traveling south on what is now the Illinois River for the first time, he asked--as he had at every larger creek or river that entered into the larger river--what it's name was. Unbeknownst to the great explorer, they had passed out of the area that his guide knew; so the guide responded with "I don't know!"...and Marquette promptly wrote down what he said...Sangamon...in the language of his guide...
That is a similar story regarding how kangaroos got their name.
Apocryphal or not, I like those stories.
That's OK. I have an autographed picture.

Dinosaurs must have had those rooms.

I'm watching a documentary about Scandinavia during WW2
I've got nothing to do either. Though, that sounds interesting.
I was watching Farscape earlier. Now it is music and RF.
It was about a 7.What was it on the Calvin scale?
At speech a few weeks ago, his therapist asked him "what do we say when we burp?" He stared at her awhile. She repeated it a few times. He finally said "don't know". She gave him "excuse me".
I corrected her and said "We say 'good one'."
(She's worked with our family for about 15 years, so she wasn't surprised.)
