>>What's a grlo (neck)?
>
>Unit of measure for cattle. "We have 100 horses, 300 cows, 200 sheep - altogether 600 necks of cattle". Also, a racehorse is a "fullblooded neck" if it's got a good pedigree. You see, we aren't completely immune to reusing words. We just do it sparingly.

Ah, in English it's "100 horse, 300 head of cattle" (horses and sheep are not cattle - only beef is)
- Whoever said that women are the weaker sex never tried to wrest the bedclothes off one in the middle of the night
- Worry is the interest you pay, in advance, for a loan that you may never need to take out.
