[Jacob-list] Scrapie

[ACAMDA at aol.com]

Your thought for today!  This was in my e-mail:

"Scrapie is another excellent word. Scrapie clearly couldn't   
mean anything but a disease. Though, on reflection, it might   
be a Scottish cut, as in, 'e fell down and got a wee scrapie   
on his knee." --Bill Bryson
