With regard to dirt in this case.

If he were saying read I think the
line would be, "Context to read as
dirt."

Maybe a real English major will
chime in though.

She's cute (can say that, we're
not on the wlax side).
Thanks, D. Yes, she's an attractive woman. Decent movie, good story. The two of them have chemistry though nothing gets romantic. Not a Chick Flick, as they say.

I love words. However, there are some words I just hate the sound of. Like conundrum. Or confluence.

Love learning new ones. I was watching an excellent PBS documentary last night about Huey Long for the second time and again, a certain word caught my ear: pesterance. It's an old word not in use any more but it sounds funny. Cool word to add to a vocabulary. Kind of obvious what the meaning is.

Great word
