I subscribe to Dictionary's word of the day.
I found today's entry rather ironic
virago \vuh-RAH-go; vuh-RAY-go\, noun:
1. A woman of extraordinary stature, strength, and courage.
2. A woman regarded as loud, scolding, ill-tempered, quarrelsome, or overbearing.
So ladies next time you're extraordinary, strong or brave, beware someone doesn't label you a loud, overbearing beeotch.

"You like potato and I like
potahto,
You like virago and I like
virahgo,
Potato, potahto, virago, virahgo,
Let's call the whole thing off!"
(damn!)
Too late.
Ditto on Stephanie's comment....where were you last week when I needed this?
