Ok before I look it up.. I know it's a shape.. ok going to look it up now.. don't go anywhere..
rhombicosidodecahedron is an Archimedean solid. It has 20 regular triangular faces, 30 regular square faces, 12 regular pentagonal faces, 60 vertices and 120 edges.
The name rhombicosidodecahedron refers to the fact that the 30 square faces lie in the same planes as the 30 faces of the rhombic triacontahedron which is dual to the icosidodecahedron.
It can also called a cantellated dodecahedron or a cantellated icosahedron from truncation operations of the uniform polyhedron.
Neeeeat.. I knew it was a shape..that's all.

I was right, it is the fiesty one ~ A fault-finder, a disagreeable curmudgeon who finds fault in everything, who loves misery and sharing it with others.
Personally I would really consider her more of a:

rumbelow - 2. A common whore
rumbelow - 3. A type of carriage
rumbelow - 4. As in Donald Rumbelow, author (I read his Jack the Ripper book)
If you were applying # 2 to the fiesty one I must defend her and say that there was nothing common about elena. But she was

odd, the roots make no sense when combined (feeling the right (direction) or intestinal feeling). Unless the first part is a Greek root I'm not familar with. Anyway it means easily offended or thin skinned.
I don't know who ya'll were talking about so, I'm just gonna go with an easy open compound:
articulated lori
