good words

a list of words that we deem "good".

Firkin

noun.

a small wooden vessel or cask.
an olde* English measurement of about 1/4 a barrel.

*hehe. Who spells old like that, and how do stores or "shoppes" decide on this crappy style to name their businesses?!?!?! ie. The Fairmount Pet Shoppe. ugh.

Anyway, firkin's are awesome.
