Speaking of weird names...

The other day while I was walking through Walmart I happened to look over and see a pill bottle of Ginkgo Biloba. Of course I just laughed and walked away wondering what the heck does the word "Ginkgo Biloba" even mean! (or were they just making up random words, which is always fun! Floobenshnoopers! Which means... nothing... I'm still working on it.) So I looked up the definition on google. I learned that it has no living relitives, it must be a pretty lonley tree. Also it is commonly misspelled as gingo, (which of course ryhmes with Bingo! B4!)

  1. Ginkgo Biloba is said to help with mental alertness. I keep it on hand when I run out of my ADD medication. But yeah, it's a pretty lonely tree.
