Word of the Every So Often​

anonymize:  (verb)  (rhymes with:  economize)  to make something anonymous; to remove identifying information, such as one might do if that person were trying to hide the original source of, say, the latest information he, she, it, or they have posted to the world wide web.  Dear God, Gloria!  We’ve been anonymized!

The Daily Holiday

​

April 2 is National Ride Your Horse to a Bar Day.  And why not?  Here in Portland, as with maybe many cities, you can still see embedded in the curbs the rings people once used to tie up their horses.  And some of those rings are outside of bars.  The only thing you need is a horse.  But do be aware of local laws.  In some places you can get a DUI for being drunk on a horse.  Not in Oregon, though, but you still might get busted for public intoxication, or even animal cruelty.  So, yeah.  I’m going to walk.  Unfortunately, there isn’t an official day for that.  There are though, plenty of unofficial days for walking to a bar.  Like... every day.  Or, as Drew Carey once said:  “Don’t like your job?  There’s a support group for that.  It’s called everybody, and we meet every night after work down at the bar.”

The B Word

 

It was the B word that I heard word,

but not the B word that is heard with the G word

or the C word, but with the P word,

and sometimes the T word.

 

Though the D word and the E word

are just as bad as the Z word,

at least they’re not the V word,

or the worst of them all, the B word.

 

Never say the A word or the K word,

especially with the J word.

But it wasn’t the A or the J or the K word

that I heard word.

It was the B word.

 

We all know the F word and the N word,

and that the Q word could also be the U word.

 

And the M word and the N word

are so verily sin words,

should they ever be heard words.

 

And the S word and the X word

only needs the E word

to be the H word to pay word,

much less to say word.

 

And that leaves the R words and the L words,

the W words and the O words words words!

But at least they’re not the B word,

can’t you C word?

 

And through it all the I words

are wondering Y words

ever become so absurd.
