On the front lawn were six old ladies lying naked on the grass, Millie, Nelda, Elma, Lacey, Tippy and Rosie.I thought this was a bit unusual, but continued on my way to the store.On my return trip, I passed the same nursing home with the same six old ladies lying naked on the lawn.This time my curiosity got the best of me, and I went inside to talk to the Nursing Home Administrator.'Do you know there are six ladies lying naked on your front lawn?''Yes,' she said. 'They're retired prostitutes, and they're having a yard sale.' ldoz 1

A "nip" can mean a small measure of spirit like whisky or brandy or a superficial bite from a dog etc. SOB's examples are in common use throughout the land. One can also "nip [something] in the bud" meaning to stop it developing. An earlier form, dating from at least 1595, is to "nip in the bloom". In motoring law in this country, NIP stands for a "Notice of Intended Prosecution" that must be served on a suspected offender within 14 days of the commission of an offence. If someone or something is "nippy", it is able to move quickly. The adjective also means "chilly". I like words... Sonovabich 1 Awards
