RE: language stuff
I feel your pain. www.m-w.com is at the top of my favorites list- it's
titled "a dictionary" so it can be first on the list. What an anal retentive
verbophile I am.....
I'm lauging.
While we're doing true confessions, I'm more of a vocabulary geek. I'll
think
of a word that I'm pretty sure means what I intend it to but just to make
sure
I look it up. Sometimes inaccurate usage is embarrasing.
Except in some contexts when we think of little-known words and try to use
them as much as impossible. Silly thithers.

np: streams (various artists) -- I decided last night that I REALLY needed
to
listen to this album which of course I don't own and of course all there is
online is snippets, but then I remembered that my future roommate has it
(one
of the reasons we're rooming together is our taste in music). definately
fits
the mood.
