Me too. I thought it was a silly humourous statement. Terry's command of the English language is so far advanced from mine though that he grasps understandings from words that I don't. I think the word may have a different connotation to it in England than it does here in the states. Here, we use a lot of English words differently than their original meaning which is incorrect I know, but habit.
