ok folks - are oranges called oranges because they are orange or is orange called orange because it is the same colour as oranges?
i do know the answer, but do youo_O

this may have something to do with the volume of scotch im drinking, purely for medical purposes you understand.

I think the orange ( fruit) came first and the name followed afterwards :p
But why I'm not sure ;)
It's like the question about the egg :whistle:

not trying hard enough sounds the best, i now have an answer to the idea of drinking a cold away, drinking scotch does not kill a cold. though i supose i could argue that i may have felt alot worse if i hadn't tried to drink it into oblivion.
