It later referred to the song of merriment that accompanied said dances.

‘Soup’ was a slang term for drugs that were injected into a horse to make it run faster.
A racehorse that was on PEDs was said to be ‘souped up.’
We now use the term to refer to anything that is enhanced.

The ‘deck’ in “Deck the Halls” means “to decorate.”
But, it is not related or a shortening of ‘decorate.’
It comes from the Dutch word meaning “to cover.”
You also use it when you’re all “decked out.”

Annual reminder that it’s called Cyber Monday because we kind of didn’t used to have internet at home, at least not high-speed broadband. So you’d spend the morning at work, on your “lightning fast” 1.5Mbps connection, exercising the still-new novelty of buying stuff online.

The fact that the Louvre heist didn’t take place at dawn, but at the very reasonable hour of 9:30 a.m. shows that even French jewel thieves have a better work-life balance than us.

The 'lady' in 'ladybugs' refers to the Virgin Mary.
First of all, there are over 5,000 varieties of ladybugs.
However, the first type of these beetles to be called a 'ladybug' had 7 spots which were thought to symbolize the 7 sorrows she suffered.

Dearest Clara,
The standoff between ESPN and YoutubeTV has entered it's second week. My weekday evenings are devoid of the MACtion I was promised. I'm not sure how much more of this a man can endure.
