skreidleI just learned that the title of the TV show "Queer as Folk" comes from an old British saying, "There's naught so queer as folk"--i.e., there's nothing as strange as people.
Dinner was quite tasty--homemade lemon chicken, cashew chickenbok choi, and steamed pork dumplings (which have a Chinese name I've forgotten again*), preceded by shrimp crackers and a bit of sparkling wine, and followed by dishwashing and a bit of tawny port. :)

How did that come up in conversation, by the way? How did you learn it?
