    I just place the difference between wench and winch in there. Originally, a wench was any woman who worked outside the home, and, therefore, was not supported by a man. Many were widows, orphans, and such, particularly after the Plague hit Europe. Usually these were barmaids, washerwomen, seamstresses and other menial jobs. There term has since come to mean a woman of questionable morals sometimes, but that was not the original meaning form what I have read.

    Funny you mention a sheep dog, our neighbor is breeding them. Two of them get out now and then and run up and down the dirt road. They act agresive but then I reach thru fence and talk nice to them and they calm down.

    I assume the van--being easier to knock out--is first on the list.

    Do you get to the engine through the hood, or do you yank the console and flail around in the passenger compartment?

    Remember this one came to the house and I bathed and fed him a few days then gave him back to Elrod his owner.

    You're right, Van first, I can do this from the hood and underneath the front on the ground.

    The farm across the street has some Great Pyrenees. When I first moved in, 3 of them wandered onto my place, dirty as heck. I was gonna bathe one of them and put a ribbon around its neck, then send them home...just to mess with the owner's head ;)

    We gave him back to the neighbor and he commented how silky and soft it was now, said he already had promised that one to a girl in Jax. or he would let of have it. We told him we didn't want one right now, take a lot of food to feed them when they get grown.

    He was beautiful and sweet, but feeding him would have been very expensive.
