And here's one some of us might have needed looking up:

Gacked (adj.): To steal from someone else. Used often in blogs and such.
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=gacked

I never heard THAT one before.  :)


These are all funny.  #8 reminds me of the movie The New Age where a totally superficial, status-obsessed, money-obsessed couple open a boutique for people like themselves called "Hipocracy."  I thought that was the greatest name for that store.  (I highly recommend the movie.)

I think you're right  ;D. Also loved the Caterpallor  :laugh:.

15. Beelzebug (n.): Satan in the form of a mosquito, that gets into your bedroom at three in the morning and cannot be cast out.

I didn't know the German word Beelzebub is the same in English. I wonder how it may be pronounced...
Beelzebug is sweet, too. And the definition is correct. Mosquitos are a spawn of hell :P.

Thanks for posting this, Meryl.

I'm glad y'all liked the wordplay.  Odd, but that last one always makes me think of Donald Trump.  ;D

And here's one some of us might have needed looking up:

Gacked is a great word.  People at Live Journal are always gacking things from each other.   And I love "Hipocracy," too.  Will have to look for that movie.  IMDb says it stars Judy Davis and Peter Weller, both favorites of mine.

I think you're right  ;D. Also loved the Caterpallor  :laugh:.

Beelzebub is pronounced "Bee-EL-zeh-buhb" in English, mostly.  Appropriately, it's from the Hebrew for "lord of flies."  :)

Louise, congrats on 3700.  Have you ventured into that shed yet?  ;)

She did. And she found the OLD waffle maker, not the newer Belgian waffler. Louise told me she took a picture of the waffle but I haven't seen it yet...and all that was left as evidence in my kitchen was a plate, sticky with maple syrup.

COMPLETELY UNTRUE.

I didn't put any syrup at all on my waffles.

Wait, wait, wait...waffles...no butter?  No syrup?  Why?

Yes, why for God's sake? I've never heard of such a thing!

Maybe she put sugar on it.  :)
