penis war          (Or "Dick Size War", "DSW") Any argument which       has degenerated into quantitative boasting of the sort "My       [program|bot|etc.] is [faster|meaner|etc.]   than yours!",       generally as unconstructive (and with as little emphasis on       empirical proof) as men debating who has the biggest penis.          The term is often used on {IRC}, {news:alt.sysadmin.recovery},       and sometimes applied to IRC {botwars}, because of their       equally pointless nature.          (1999-07-14)

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Pomegranate       i.e., "grained apple" (pomum granatum), Heb. rimmon. Common in       Egypt (Num. 20:5) and Palestine (13:23; Deut. 8:8). The Romans       called it Punicum malum, i.e., Carthaginian apple, because they       received it from Carthage. It belongs to the myrtle family of       trees. The withering of the pomegranate tree is mentioned among       the judgments of God (Joel 1:12). It is frequently mentioned in       the Song of Solomon (Cant. 4:3, 13, etc.). The skirt of the high       priest's blue robe and ephod was adorned with the representation       of pomegranates, alternating with golden bells (Ex. 28:33,34),       as also were the "chapiters upon the two pillars" (1 Kings 7:20)       which "stood before the house."
