Subject: [austechwriter] Starting Friday with a joke ...
Each year the Washington Post's Style Invitational
asks readers to take any word from the dictionary,
alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing only one
letter and supply a new definition. Here are the 2002
winners:
Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which
lasts until you realize it was your money to start
with.
Foreploy: Any misrepresentation about yourself for the
purpose of getting laid.
Sarchasm: The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit
and the person who doesn't get it.
Hipatitis: Terminal coolness.
Osteopornosis: A degenerate disease. (This one got
extra credit).
Glibido: All talk and no action.
And, the winner of the Washington Post's Style
Invitational:
Ignoranus: A person who's both stupid AND an asshole.
