Also means or meant "bush," as in Coleridge's "The ivy tod is heavy with snow."

Actually it says tod also means brock, so someone called Tod Brock , would be one of those "double namers" or whatever they are called.

Roman Polanski and Francis Ford Coppola. Kind of bad for Coppola because I keep getting it in my head that he's a scumbag rapist which, as far as I know, he's not.

xpost I am dreadful in pub quizzes when they play a clip of a song which is either by Foreigner, Chicago or REO Speedwagon in a music round. I pretty much always choose the wrong one.
