Ever wonder where pharmaceutical companies come up with names for their new meds?
I certainly don't lose any sleep over it, but one day, while indulging in my favorite passtime, which happens to be flipping through the dictionary, I came across the word 'virago'. From its Latin roots, it means a manlike (or warrior) woman.
Is it mere coincidence that 'Viagra', and this word, virago, share so many letters in common? Pray tell. And please, please, say it isn't so!
