Well, when you pop an 'outlandish' bottle, the outcoming (imp) might not comply with 'inlandish' rules.. ;-) Btw. (speaking of etymology), up to the 13th century, the Frisian language had stayed so close to it's descendant, Old English, that English actors playing puppet shows were understood without interpreters. Later on, both languages went apart, Old English was 'overhauled' by the Romanics, Frisian by the Hanseatics. Stay humid on a dry rusk ..
