Serviette??? What in hey is that? I know I'd be pretty embarassed if I dropped my pountang on the chesterfield, and vice versa. And a toque. Yeah, my mom used to tell me to wear that knit cap when I went out in the cold to take a toque off a.... "cigarette". A freeway is a free highway as opposed to a toll road which is usually a 'pike, not a big ol pickerel-type fish. Jeeze Louise, you people sure talk funny!
