Small flute armadillos
Allan always talks about the minute errors people have to fix in their forms. He calls them something I have always heard as "piccadillo". I thought he was being funny, calling their problems "small armadillos". Piccolo being "small" and armadillo being... well... an armadillo. Like having a monkey on one's back or a white elephant or a thousand other animal phrases.
However, the Word of the Day on my Google homepage today was "peccadillo", defined as "a slight offense or petty fault" so I guess that's what he's been saying all along. But I think I like my version better.

Ok, and the first time I read this, I couldn't figure out what minute errors were, Were they errors that only took a minute to make? Or errors in time? Maybe a minute error is one that only takes a minute to make but lasts a lifetime? he, he.
