I was standin in line.................

So I was standing in line at the jumbo mumbo gumbo festival in Manitou Springs yesterday. Waiting to get my tickets to sample 6 different types of

jambalaya at the cook off. (writing this reminds me of the Rollin stone song line "I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy....And man, did he look pretty ill".)........ Anyway, the woman behind us started talking about foods to eat. We covered boiled peanuts, chicken livers, and broccoli. She said she was an Omnivore. I guess I missed school that day because the word did not register with me...or perhaps the junction across which my nerve impulses pass from an axon terminal to a neuron, muscle cell or gland cell neuron is not working as well as it once did. But anyway, I found out and wrote it down in my book of knowledge: Omnivore means to eat both vegetables and meat. from Latin: omne all, everything; vorare to devour. I had two years of Latin in high school and apparently retained little. I do rember: Britania est insula. So all in all it was a great day at the festival.
