why do we park on driveways and drive on parkways?

A driveway is a path connecting private property to a public road. It is literally "the way to drive" to reach the road. Since it is private property, you can park on it as well if you wish.

Parkways, on the other hand, were originally roads that went through parks. But then many of the parks were turned into stores and gas stations and whatnot, but the name stuck.

Did you google that? you know it was rhetorical right?

No, just to be different I Binged it.

That's a lie. I googled it.

You were this close to a free trip to Bing Decontamination, buddy.

Impus Major: It did not go well, Father. (And yes, he really enjoys talking like that.)
NH: Why not?
IM: We read a short story, and then we were supposed to explore how we thought each of the characters viewed the theme. So I spent about an hour writing it up. Then once we were done she gave us the answer and I was totally wrong.
NH: Er, interpretation of a fictional character's possible thoughts is a matter of opinion, you can't be wrong. Did she tell you why you were wrong?
IM: No. I was just wrong.

So the whole, "What would Captain Ahab think about Red Lobster restaurant? Oh, THAT'S what you think?!?!? You're wrong wrong WRONG!" is why I (and Impus Major) hate English...

No apologies needed. I agree. If you support your interpretation with sufficient logical evidence, it doesn't matter if I agree with it - you've proven the interpretation valid.

Well that says something about your wife that her cool quotient is so high that it raises everyone else's that is around her.

NobodysHome's Story Time:

To celebrate my Ph.D., NobodysWife and I went to England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, and France. While the "working farm" bed & breakfast we stayed in in Scotland was delightful ("ONE measly sausage, coming up!"), the restaurants uniformly, without variation, served nothing that wasn't fried, and no vegetable matter to speak of.

After a couple of days of such fare, we were desperate to eat something that wasn't fried, so at our next stop NobodysWife was delighted to see a "veggie bake" on the menu, where they mixed broccoli and cheese into a pie and baked it. Sounded delightful!

So they mixed broccoli and cheese into a pie, baked it, and then deep fried the pie!

When the sad mass arrived at our table, NobodysWife and I just couldn't stop giggling about the whole thing. Though gods, once we crossed the border and restaurants started serving greens again we both had massive salads... and didn't mind at all that they were 90% iceberg lettuce, which hardly counts as "green" in anyone's book, except for cheap chain restaurants.

Every cheap restaurant thinks iceberg lettuce are greens, it doesn't take a chain. :-)

Meh, too long without greens and I get greens withdrawal. More often then not my lunch is a bowl of Yong Tau Fu Soup, with 3 bunches of vegetables (kang kong, xiao bai cai and chinese cabbage in it).

Generally salads I prefer take without dressing so I can take quite some green.
