Speaking of expressions like "shot his wad," which were clearly

sexual at one time but have become neutral, I was just getting used

to hearing kids saying that something "sucks" when I got hit with the

MCI commercial where a kid is calling another a "dork" -- which was a

synonym for "penis" when I was a kid in the '50s.
