So a question just arose that got me wondering….

[J.B.]

Why is it called a cherry?
Ideas?

 

[Vinny]

Have no idea but would like to eat yours

 

[JerseyBoy]

a little research turned this up:

The cherry has been associated with virginity from ancient times to modern, which probably arose from the red colored fruit with enclosed seed symbolizing the uterus. Maya, the virgin mother of Buddha was offered fruit and general support by a holy cherry tree while she was pregnant.

Now we know...

 

[J.B.]

No. Now I know. Something to cross off my "Things I don't know" list.

until it goes on your 'Things I forgot' list

~wonders when he can start crossing out items in my 'things to do with/to J.B.' list~

 

[Minkey Boodle]

I think it's because cherries are juicy and they bleed when you bite 'em.

mhm..yeah, that sounds about right. I didn't make that up, either.

 

[DarkAngel]

No. Now I know. Something to cross off my "Things I don't know" list.

What is else on your list?

 

[J.B.]

I refuse to answer that.

Yes the list gets shorter each day.

 

[DarkAngel]

I refuse to answer that.

But why?

 

[J.B.]

I'll destroy the illusions of many and I just can't bear to be the reason so many people lose their reason for living.

 

[DarkAngel]

Wow...

You are magical!
