today's OED word of the day? "headcase"
meanwhile, in other linguistic news, here are some words and phrases i wish we used more often these days:
"various and sundry"
"poppycock and balderdash"
"perturbation"
"exceedingly fascinating"
"erudite"
"ellucidate"
"bucolic"
here are some words i hate:
"importune"
"homely"
"ballustrade"
a bunch of rambling thoughts, many of which relate to hymns and songs, theology and books, movies and tv, food and fashion, politics and the drama that is my life, but nothing really makes a consistent appearance except pictures.

I just used the word erudite last night. It is a good word. And is importune a good thing or a bad thing? That one always confused me.
