A moment of silence for "snollygoster"

To make room for words like "phat" and "Frankenfood", Merriam-Webster had to trim older, less fashionable words from the pages.. so good-bye, snollygoster (a shrewd, unprincipled person, especially a politician.) and abligurition (a prodigal spending on meat and drink). And 3,100 of your friends.

Is there anything they can't do?

Damnit, I want a donut. Chocolate frosted, with sprinkles. I know the sprinkles don't really add anything, but I want sprinkles! It's about a half-mile walk to the nearest donut place.. I could call it exercise with a reward at the end..

dither..

So, I'm putting it up to a vote!

Oh, that was cool..

I have two versions of Nothing Else Matters in my music files. The original by Metallica, and this very cool version by Apoptygma Berzerk. Best described as techno.

I just got them back to back.

The people have spoken!

8-2 in favor of donuts. I'm outta here.

I went, I saw, I scarfed.

Probably the last donut-related post today.

They didn't have sprinkles. Two cake donuts with chocolate icing, and a carton of milk.

Yum.

Ahh! stress stress stress...

I was supposed to hear about the Blockbuster job yesterday or today. Juan, the guy who interviewed me said to call him if I didn't hear from him by 1500 today. I just called, and his cell isn't picking up!

Arrrggghhh!!!!

Yet again, damn it.

Blockbuster called. No go. Evidently, I'm not worthy of renting crappy videos to an uncaring public that wouldn't know a good film if it piddled on their legs.

*sigh* Keep on looking...

You know?

It's a real pity that Axl was such a prima dona asswipe, because Guns'n'Roses was one kick-ass band.
