I find the Oxford English Dictionary's fourth listing most industrious!
4. fig. and transf. Scarcity of anything, material or immaterial; scanty supply; practical deficiency, want or lack of a quality, etc.It's a fairly useful word. Didn't know scanty was a word either. Not too shabby.
Anyways, sorry about the dearth of posts lately, but I've been wracking my brains over how to add something new, something with pop and pizazz. Something to make use of more formatting buttons, some color, perhaps a few rather bold ideas, something to juxtapose against those awesome bear photos, but that wouldn't necessarily have to compete with them. Thus, Word of the Day was born. Updated every few weeks, or more often if our prestigious Talent Brigade so chooses, it will lay down wild and unschooled observations of color and diction with enough charm, force and violence to kick your English and Studio Art professors in the face! YEAH!
Word of the Day rules:
1. Feel free to suggest potential WD's by leaving comments.
2. If it's not in the Oxford English Dictionary, it's not Word of the Day material.
3. Every Word of the Day post must include a new color as well.
4. Pictures are totally welcome, make them as explicit as possible.
5. Professionalism, ladies and gentlemen, professionalism.
On with the Update:
I'm going to post my Introduction to Me soon, which will finally give this blog the direction and guidance it so badly needs. (Constructive) Suggestions for how I should continue to conduct myself are welcome. Coming up before break ends we've got a new series put together by the Talent Brigade called Adventures in Winter, which wouldn't surprise me if it didn't post until Spring, but we can hope. Then when 2010 kicks in I'll get back to profiling, possibly moving onto portraiture or life stories after that, depending on the availability of my roommates. Now, a brief parting gift. Posts will resume when crises occur, or after Christmas:
Winter Reading for You and Me (as far as I can tell):
The Road (that's Me)
The tabloids' very own "Tiger Woods' sext messages"
Shit tons of Twilight
Superfreakanomics, was at Borders today- anybody read it?
The Trial of Henry Kissinger (my Dad)
See you soon my friends!
