WFTD: MonoBlogging

I thought it appropriate to put my 2cents into a debate on the upcoming right to an election debacle which will most certainly change the face of our country; either in glorious triumph or darkest feudalism. And as I was meandering over my past perfectionism of verbage and grammar, I realized that I had been monologuing, but when one does this in a blog forum...

My word for the day is: Monoblogging

mon·o·blogue also mon·o·blog
v. mon·o·blogued also mon·o·blogged, mon·o·blogu·ing also mon·o·blog·ging, mon·o·blogues also mon·o·blogs

1.	a form of dramatic online entertainment, comically typed solo, or the like by a single blogger: a comedian's monoblogue.

2.	a prolonged post or discourse by a single blogger, esp. one dominating or monopolizing an online conversation.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Word For The Day

I had a Dream! Well, yes, but I never remember them. Much like the words I make up. Rebecca and I have had some fun with the words my mind comes up with. Many of which are a direct result of circumstances that arise throughout the day. After creating these words, I rarely write them down.

We had a laugh one night when I made up an awesome word, then formulated a Webster's hypothesis based on the circumstances in which the word came to me. We laughed, because i said "If i don't write it down, I won't remember it." I didn't write it down, and I couldn't remember the word OR it's meaning in the morning. What a sign of an impending geriatric era ahead of me!

When I woke up this morning, much to the demise of my dog. Rebecca, handed me a book that she had started reading. The book is called The Tale of a Tardy Oxcart and 1501 other stories by Chuck Swindoll. In it, was this quote which absolutely identifies my disposition.

I have a little sign that hangs in my study, It reads this way. "Idiosyncratically eccentric phraseology is the promulgator of terrible obfuscation." Doesn't that thrill you to hear that? And on the back is a translation, "Big words cause confusion."
