Shoal? I mean they are the wales among the fishes, aren't they... B) Wales is that country to the west of England... Could it be a throng of theorboes? BTW When is Xmas? ...St Andrews Day? (30th November) Wasn't he crucified on an X cross? Scots will use any excuse for a 'wee swally' - Rrright through tae Hogmanay! Happy Christmas everyone, - or whatever you celebrate at this time of year. In my schooldays, X always meant the wrong answer Ron (UK) To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html

Can't have been my lucky day B) BTW When is Xmas? Christmas is on Dec 25th. Xmas is short for Christmas, as the Greek letter X is the first letter of the Greek word XPICTOC, i. e. Christ. Other possible abbreviations of that nomen sacrum, which you can find in texts of musical manuscripts, Orthodox icons, inscriptions, are XP, XC (usually with a short dash above). ...St Andrews Day? (30th November) Wasn't he crucified on an X cross? According to younger tradition, St Andrew was crucified on an x-shaped cross. Christ's cross, however, probably was of so-called Latin shape, like the letter T, as the Gospels mention the titulus. -- Mathias To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html

Too much to resist. If they're whales, they'd be a pod. I believe there's an historical reference to them as giraffes. If that's the case, wouldn't they be a herd ?
