ChaMineola

The shrinking city of Mineola, LI due to the growth of Chaminade HS. The purchases of Meribah in Muttontown and Founders' Hollow in upstate NY whet their appetite for land. The first mineolan acquisitions were the bus depot and print shop across Jericho. And their latest acquisition is the former Ford Dealership, now known as the Activity-Athletic Center (AAC) or the "Chami-Dome." No one knows where the Marianists have set their eyes next.

Toe Rag

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.

1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.
