WOTW 12/03/06
Hey everyone, and welcome to the word of the week! In spite of the dark nature of this week's word, I hope you manage to use it as much as is humanly possible in your everyday conversations. Here it is:
-piacular (pī-ăk'ū-lur) adj. --> requiring expiation; very bad, sinful
Ex: We knew the cat was piacular when we saw the feral gleam in her eyes.
And now, for this week's random fact:
Nutritionists have calculated the number of calories used up in various forms of exercise, including the act of chewing. According to their figures, if you were to eat an eight-inch stalk of celery very slowly - taking over sixteen minutes to chew the whole stalk - there would be an over-all net loss of calories. You could eat celery forever that way and still lost weight.
Alrighty, folks, I hope you all have a very merry week. Be sure to check my blog often this week for some great music, Christmas music reviews, and a special surprise at the end of the week. Be sure to participate in our music contest, so you can win gift certificates and CDs!! Ok, bye.
Fondest regards,
Dr. J
