Scrabulary Word of the Day 1-30

GELLOW = GENTLEMAN + FELLOW

Our local sportscaster was reporting that the Broncos had hired a new defensive coach.  He pointed to a picture of the new coach and said:

"This handsome gellow."

He chuckled, corrected himself and said "That's what happens when I can't talk."  But I say that he is just coming into his own, speaking the "Scrabulary" way.

A language phenomenon,

Scrabulary Word of the Day 1-28

PLAT = PLOT + PLAN


Today's word is courtesy of Swuvie in response to a dream that Donut had last night.  Seems Donut dreamt that Swuvie, Beetie, he and I were living in a house that Donut lived in in Massachusetts.  In the dream, Donut had been on a trip and when he returned home we took him to the backyard and showed him a gigantic hole big enough to fit a large car.  The hole contained a huge maze system held up by columns.  Beetie handed Donut a brochure calling the maze the "Gongozolla System".  Beetie and Swuvie were excited that it had only cost $50 to open up the hole where the system already existed.  


When Donut told Swuvie of the dream she said, tongue-in-cheek:

"It's just a government plat to take over the world!!"

Maybe Donut is the next Stephen King?

Scrabulary Word of the Day 1-23

FEATURISTICS = FEATURES + CHARACTERISTICS


Swuvie is today's Scrabulary contributor.  Enamored by movie make-up artistry, Swuvie can be frightened by monster-type characters.  She says:

"Certain monster featuristics scare me more than others."

Swuvie is much more brave than I.  We went through Van Helsing's castle at Universal Studios about 7 times and each time I was more frightened and she was more entertained (mostly because I kept saying "no,no,no" when she would want to go through again).  She had no mercy. I held on tight to her and kept my eyes closed.  It's great fun to look back on now.  

Lots of laughs,

~Scrabulary Chris :D
