Don't shout Siri to loud. Simple minds will start to rail against the Apple.:roll:

What nationality is the name Siri?
Siri is a Scandinavian female given name. It is a short form of Sigrid, of Old Norse origin, and literally meaning "beautiful victory", from Old Norse sigr (victory) and Old Norse fríðr (beautiful).

As a startup, when coming up with Siri's name, we wanted something that was easy to remember, short to type, comfortable to pronounce, and a not-too-common human name. And we wanted to be able to get the domain name for not too much money... ;-)

Once Siri became the leading candidate, everyone on the team had their own favorite explanation of the meaning. Dag Kittlaus, our Norwegian-American CEO, once considered using Siri as the name of his child, and liked the Norse meaning "beautiful woman who leads you to victory". For me, Siri, which means "secret" in Swahili, was a tip of the hat to our pre-named days when we began as stealth-company.com. I also liked the fact that it was the reverse of Iris, a software system I helped build as part of the CALO project which Siri spun out of. Some liked the resemblance to SRI, which was the research institute that ran the CALO project.

Simple minds cannot evolve.:-|
Lol - then I've got this completely backwards as on my phone she has an Austrailian accent & sounds just like
Nicole Kidman (Hawt).

It didn't look like a traditional carnival funnel cake.....fucking love strawberry funnel cakes..... If you wouldn't mind sharing how to make the batter... I'd love to know so I can make some for my lil guys.
Funnel cakes are called that because when poured, they pour from a funnel in a circular motion. Elephant ears is just a big flop of batter lol.

1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup milk
2 eggs
Tb of sugar
Stir to desired thickness
Filled bottom of pan with veg oil
Brown n flip
Wah lah add additional toppings

I use the same recipe batter for my onion rings also
