Read if you feel like learning new words...
   

If any of you would like to get a concise version of the archive of the last four years' worth of "Words of the Day" from Dictionary.com, you may...

Through this link, there is the... non-columned version:

http://angelfire.lycos.com/trek/sauron38/Dictionary_Words.wpd

And through this one, there is the... columned version:

http://angelfire.lycos.com/trek/sauron38/Dictionary_Words_Columned.wpd

Happy wording...

It could be that due to his reflected sense of worth that Sauron actually has a very low self opinion and is letting this show by listing that option as a passive aggressive way letting us all have a stick in the eye.

It could also be that I have no idea what I am typing, and I am suffering from the Pinnen disease (where the fingers have a mind of their own).

It could also be that Sauron has Pinnen's Disease.

(no i have not downloaded the files yet, but I play a similar game with a friend here at work. We try to stump each other with non technical words).

I think you have the disease... Option #3 is to see if people care about expanding their mindsets... So far... it's 100% against it...

...Yet..... you forgot to vote... that hurts me such.... like that glowstick.... that ran me through... in the dream with a little green thing with poor English grammar skills.

If you really want to be the sesquipedalian... you could sign up for The Word of the Day via E-mail...
