It is a bad mix of Spanish and English to mean "The Quail" (Es la verdad que puedo hablar en Espanol, pero no hay nadie con quien puedo practicar en Minnesota y por eso me falta mucho...!que lastima!).

Sometime back in the early eighties, I woke up one morning from a dream and told Eva that in my dream I was a giant Gambles Quail. Not a basic fluffy little quail that make cute sounds, but a big, bad dude that just happened to be a six-foot-three quail. She thought it was hilarious, and started called me "El Quailo" for fun. Two years ago she got her first tattoo (I have none) - a tiny Gambles Quail on her ankle.

Now aren't you sorry that you asked? :D

Cheers,
Ken
