    "Buttload" - used for measurement of wine and spirits, 1 buttload = approx 126 gallons.

    Closely related to the "chit ton", except the latter is normally used to measure semisolid quantities. :D

    Right where I want to be.
    I thought a "buttload" was what you have right before a major BM.
    But:), what do I know.
    2 more gallons equals a chord, right? That really struck a chord with me, whilst carrying a cord to tie up my cord wood.

    Not good that your stomach was tied in a knot.
