According to the dictionary, a plunger is:
One who plunges or dives; someone who dives (into water)
someone who risks losses for the possibility of considerable gains

Words, words, words! They shut one off from the universe. Three quarters of the time one’s never in contact with things, only with the beastly words that stand for them.

Mercury was the Roman messenger to the gods. I had an Mercury once and it was fun roman through town in it. Wasn't quicksilver, but butterscotch colored, and old. Finally had to put it out of its misery....a mercury killing.

Had my first lesson in this today....
The new always carries with it the sense of violation, of sacrilege. What is dead is sacred; what is new, that is different, is evil, dangerous, or subversive.
Henry Miller
by the way Scarlet O' Jaws...it's spelled....sacrilege
subversive

Geesh, my spelling is off lately, (rolls eyes). Misspellings and typos everywhere. I get it - sacrilege; a combination of sacred and religious? Should it not be sacrelege then? And why is every thread I seem to post in tonight have something to do with religion? A subversive plot to overthrow....something? I don't know what. Maybe my grammar.

Got me speaking Phalonese again? Did I stop? I shamelessly laugh at my own puns, (because if I didn't, who would?), like this one:
Auto-body repair tip for the day: President out with a plunger. (Don't think anyone got that, but damn it's funny. Ok, maybe not really, but I thought so.)
Oh, and your word: neck....yeah, I recently punned that too, over in the ZS discussion thread while discussing Bacchaes and broadcasting in the same breath - something like - 'it's a story you can really sink your teeth into. Necks broadcast at 6p.'
Ok, so I messed that one up with a typo and probably no one got it either. At least I amuse myself.

As for myself....I fail to see the humor....(sort of...LMAO)
Here lies a man who was killed by lightning; He died when his prospects seemed to be brightening. He might have cut a flash in this world of trouble, But the flash cut him, and he lies in the stubble.

Hhmm....I'm thinking rubble as opposed to stubble. As in "he lies in the rubble". Stubble is for faces starting beards, and toes on table legs....
As in...Walking across the room, I carelessly stubbled my toe against the table leg.

Weird is a weird word because it doesn't follow that i before e, except after c rule, and I often see it misspelled, which bothers me. And that is just weird.

Yeah, yeah - improper use of the word, you say. First thing that popped into my head though, and that is what this is about, no? Just watched "the Wizard of Oz" with the girls last night. Love that movie, especially "Somewhere Over the Rainbow". Almost chokes me up everytime.

Had a near argument today with someone about the truth. The truth is subjective. According to each person and each persons experiances and moral compass.

Darn are my muscles SOAR after my workout routine started up again. I SOAR a few friends while running around the block. Well it was kinda running...okay maybe it was fastwalking with my hands on my side as I wheezed and maybe they weren't friends but neighbors asking if they needed to call for help. ;D As I was lying in my driveway after finally making it home staring into the sky I SOAR a hawk as it SOARED overhead swooping around me, at first I was concerned but then remembered that it was vultures and ravens that circle when they suspect a meal is in the vacinity.
