I keep trying to make freshwater tanks work. I'd give anything for a saltwater tank they look cool.

Yes I do have a petting zoo. I might have a steer and a hog by summer, chickens too. You think I should get a goat? No sheep, i'm afraid my friends may show up in mud boots and never leave.

I think you misunderstood me. I meant won't most of your country men think of Colt as a swear word.

I am not aware of any slang word like that. Did a quick test in my office, first thing that comes up is the revolver, one did answer Python.

"Con", or "Connard" is a swear word, it means dick in the sens of asshole.
"Trou du cul" is asshole, literaly.
