2. Not only huevos (that's such a FUN, far-encompassing word), but Heuvos Rancheros. |

. . . You can order those for breakfast at virtually ALL diners here in Tucson. . . .

3. I like it because in the "grow a pair" usage, it encompasses both sexes. |

4. Hmmm... does that make "Huevos to the huwallvos" non-gender specific and thus non-sexist? n/t |

5. I prefer the New Mexico version. |
