Fandango

It's a Spanish dance. Not sure about the details, but at least some of the mystery is solved, now.

Well, that much I knew. From context, if nothing else. But the fandango is, I believe, another South American dance, like the tango. That or it's a fish. I can never keep those straight.

So what's a scaramouche? (Or is it really "gotta moosh"? Nah, I really remember seeing "scaramouche" somewhere, but I have no idea where.)

I'm thinking it's a kind of beetle. Or possibly a piece of jewelry made to look like a beetle. Yeah.

A Scaramouch is a character in an Italian comedy that parodies the Spanish don, characterized by boastfullness and cowardlyness. "Gotta moosh" sounds funnier, though.

But how do you do a fandango in a noose? Or at all, for that matter; we never did figure that one out.
