| Jerry Posted pic of Gypsy Rose!! L OL!! I also wonder where the name Flea Market came from!! Anyone know? We have them over here but they tend to sell more antique type stuff whereas a Boot Sale is supposed to be no traders , just genuine people clearing out their junk - does not always work out quite like that tho'!! How old is Toto?!! Ana xx |

| Here's what I found: --- Dear Word Detective: Why are flea markets called "flea" markets? How did they get their name and why? -- Danny Sayer, via the Internet. Well, you've brought your question to the right place. My relatives, especiallythe ones in Ohio, seem to be obsessed with flea markets and their suburban cousins, yard sales. You could be fleeing an erupting volcano with these people (unlikely in Ohio, I know, but one can always hope), and they'd insist on stopping the car to optimistically peruse two broken toasters, three boxes of Reader's Digest Condensed Books (just add verbs, I suppose), and the ugliest collection of white vinyl pocketbooks this side of Las Vegas. To me, visiting Ohio means saying "I'll wait in the car" at least ten times per day. There are two theories about the origin of "flea market," and although I'm fairly certain that one of them is actually a case of linguistic coincidence, we'll take them both for a spin. According to etymologist Christine Ammer, the first "flea market" may have been New York's raucous Fly Market, a fixture in Lower Manhattan from before the American Revolution until around 1816. The "Fly" came from the Dutch name for the market, "Vly" or "Vlie," which meant "valley," and was pronounced, you guessed it, "flea." Voila, "flea market." Maybe. However, while the Fly Market certainly existed, and its name was evidently indeed pronounced "flea market," the actual origin of the term most probably lies in Paris, where Le Marche aux Puces (literally, "market of the fleas") was a popular shopping venue. Le Marche aux Puces took its name, as you might have guessed by now, from the semi-humorous (and probably at least partly accurate) popular perception that the market's ragtag goods were more than likely to be infested with fleas. In any case, "flea market" first appeared in English in the 1920's and is most likely a simple translation of the French market's name. If "flea market" had gained currency from the Manhattan "Fly Market," it almost certainly would have appeared in print much earlier than it did. http://www.word-detective.com/121597.html |

I HAVE to share one of the funniest Yard Sale stories I ever heard! Years ago when my sweet Dad was still living, he and my Mom drove down to Ft. Benning, GA to visit my sister and her family [her husband was in the military and they were stationed there]. My sis was getting everything ready for their transfer to another post ... having a Yard Sale! This type activity was quite boring for the guys who decided to occupy their time cooking a steak dinner. They lit the grill before they went to the store for steaks so their coals would be ready when they returned. Someone came to the Yard Sale, asked if the grill was for sale ... my sister said "sure", dumped their coals and sold the grill!! Imagine my Dad and brother-in-law's surprise when they returned with the steaks and had to cook them in the house on the stove!! Most men here like their steaks cooked outside on the grill, very rare!! Our Toto was just one year old on July 18!

| Oh, that's just evil that they sold the grill while they were getting the grub! But I can just imagine that happening... What a hoot! |
