Mugwump? I thought many years ago, vaguely, that it had political connotations, but wasn't interested enough to find out what it was about.
Then I heard the "fence-sitting" explanation and enjoyed that; and (again vaguely) believed that not only was it thus self-explanatory but also that it "retro-fitted" its original meaning. So both the original political meaning, and the more recent frivolous meaning, were "a person who will not commit themselves to one side or the other". I have no idea where eithe one came from. 8-) BFN, Margery. ============================================ [EMAIL PROTECTED] in North Herts, UK ============================================ To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED]
