lorimer - n., a maker of bits, spurs, and metal mountings for bridles and saddles.


Me, I keep thinking it's yet another medieval synonym for "loser," which shows what I know. From Old French, from Latin lorum, thong or rein.

What a timely bit of trivia as that's one of our neighbor's names. We'll see him tonight at the monthly potluck.
