Clapshot. It sounds like something you might have gotten after taking a bargirl home and forgetting to use you-know-whats. Now, it is something really rather simple. In fact, a couple of Thanksgivings ago I decided throwing turnips into a pot of potatoes and mashing the lot seemed innovative, but it seems the Scots got there long before I did, so I don't get naming rights by a couple hundred years.
