The word 'gargoyle' has roots in French and Latin, meaning both 'throat' and 'gurgle.'
I have divebombed my friend's mother's computer, tonight, with pictures of gargoyles.
Ultimate practical joke on any city or township or college: Become multibillionaire, donate an unrefusable amount of money in exchange for the authority to install gargoyles in any public domain. Gargoyle highway lamps! Library gargoyles! Gargoyle playground equipment? All very menacing. I think it would be sophisticated and also hilarious.
