[View Quote] Cul-de-sac: French for "end of (a/the) bag". Defined by Webster's as a
"blind
alley". No alleys in Houston. I've heard it used for any short street
in a
residential area surrounded by houses with only one outlet. The
cul-de-sac I
live on is U-shaped, has seven houses around it, and several trees in
the median.
