What's In a Name?

The term ice is defined by dictionary.com as: "water frozen solid". However, what is more interesting is the slang meanings of this word. It is often used to refer to diamonds. It could also mean "a payment over the listed price of a ticket for a public event" or even "methamphetamine".

According to dictionary.com there are many popular sites for ice. You can view the list here. It appears that the Institution of Civil Engineers goes by the initials ICE which appears to come out number one on a Google search.

Thanks for stopping by and reading my blog. Have a nice evening (well what's left of it anyway). Ta-Ta for Now!
