[HPFGU-OTChatter] Re: June's OT Board Dictionary Launched (was Brittspeak)

It's the edge of the road (not a street, where you have a curb).  I'd
be willing to swear there's another American name for it, but my
chronic problem of frequently being unable to bring even the most
common words to mind when I want them once again rears its ugly head.
This problem is a real pain when I want to tell my kids to do
something; by the time I think of the word I need, they're long gone.

Oh! Another name for it is "shoulder" (as in "Do Not Pass On Shoulder"
roadsigns)!
