Best. Typo. Ever.[/quote]

Lol.  Apparently I have the sense of humor of an 8 year old boy.

Forevermore on DCUM, they shall be bungholes to me.[/quote]

I've always thought that "bungalow" was a dumb name for a type of house. It sounds like somewhere that a hobo would live. A hobo in his bungalow![/quote]

The name bong allow comes from the Indian word for houses in the Bangal region of India which were of a similar design.  British colonists brought the style back to England from India because they were a storey and a half and taxed less than a house with a full second storey.   Sears began to manufacture the houses in the early 20th Century because they were inexpensive and could be easily assembled by low skill workers.    The bungalow has a more interesting history than you portray.  Most hoboes lived in camps near railroad tracks so that they had easy access to the freight trains that took them from town to town.
