From what I understand, 'way' means 'road'. So a driveway is a road that you drive on, typically either to the street or your garage. A parkway is a road through or to a park. Usually parkways are landscaped, or beautified, with medians or trees along the edges.

Park comes from an old word (parc I think) meaning something enclosed. Generally fancy landscaped areas in the old days were enclosed to keep the riff-raff out, and started being called parks....the name stuck. The military enclosed the places they stored their vehicles (wagons and such, up to modern stuff) and called them 'parks' as well. They began referring to storing their vehicles as 'parking' them. The term started applying to any vehicle sometime around just after the war of 1812 and gained popularity into WW2, and stuck. It just lost the meaning of 'enclosed'. When so many military veterans continued using the phrase when they became civilians, it became standard.

Because definition 1 of "pit" is a "cavity or excavation." Definition 2 of pit is "The single central kernel or stone of certain fruits."Definition of "pitted" is "having pit removed." lol. So wouldn't removing the excavation leave it full?

How about some Jumbo Shrimp?"

Here's one more kinda sorta semi-look alike:

In West Virginia, Tyson is a brand of Chicken and Hannibal is a brand of Eggs. I can't decide which came first.

Einstein-Rosen Bridges or Hawking Mini-blackhole radiative evaporation?

p.s. Neutered is in BAD need of the next edition of Song Girl Monday....

Depends upon whether you need geometry or new shoes. Of course if you have round feet you need both. Hmmm.that brings us back to Hannibal's elephants....

Johnnykillz or ACamp? [THAT ought to cause some problems...]

...a leprechaun "cobbler" made me do it.
