I was out to lunch today and on the menu I saw "Hoagie" ... I was like WTF...and then when I got home, I actually looked the word up in the dictionary.
Hoagie/Hoagy hoa·gie also hoa·gy
n : a large sandwich made of a long crusty roll split lengthwise and filled with meats and cheese (and tomato and onion and lettuce and condiments)
Numbuh Two's new nickname? Might as well just call him "Subway". ;D

Heehee! Really? *whips out bus pass and city map* Which restaurant was this? O yeah and I remember something funny too. I was flipping through my assigned skool reading book and then a word caught my eye. *drumroll here* Wallabee! In capital letters! Yes, with two e's at the end! Then I lost the page... *picks up book and flicks through it crazily*

Oh well I know what a wallabee is.. but for the sake of the thread Wallabee Wallaby \Wal"la*by\, n.; pl. Wallabies. [From a native name.] (Zo["o]l.) Any one of numerous species of kangaroos belonging to the genus Halmaturus, native of Australia and Tasmania, especially the smaller species, as the brush kangaroo (H. Bennettii) and the pademelon (H. thetidis). The wallabies chiefly inhabit the wooded district and bushy plains Soooo Numbuh Four's new nick name is.. uh... Rocko?

In case I haven't mentioned it before, I'm a Go player (Go being the best board game in the world) and one day, I was looking up Go computer programs. Looking through a list, I laughed out loud, when I saw someone had written a Go playing program named "Wally."

Oh oh oh something v. interesting was spotted at 3:26 PM yesterday by yours truly! I was on this tour bus (the cheapest way to get around here! But it's sooooooo slow) And the tour guide dude pointed out something called 'Lincoln Abby'. I was like, WHAT? And he went on about this nun lady called Abigail Lincoln (I kid you not!) and they had this abbey named after her, and since her first name was Abigail they dropped the 'e'. Like some medeival joke. O.O i was freaked out

Hey. Check this out. One day, I was plainly reading the Japanese-English (& English-Japanese) Dictionary, and I came up to a Japanese word. Wanna know what it is? It's kuki [Numbuh 3's name (Kuki Sanban)]! It means "stalk" in Japanese! When I say stalk, I mean a stem from a plant. It looks like many plants have "kuki's" connecting them.

Actually "Kuki" has more than one meaning. The other involves a layer of the atmosphere. Both make perfect sense with regards to her character.
