Cumshaw is one helluva way to leave freely from jail in D&D, but it has to be my favorites too

Little Jimmy Hefflefinger, the town kook, was known for miles around for his annual act of lunacy on this day. His antics never failed to culminate in the public display of devouring insects and
self-defenestration.

Word of the day June 16
The Word of the Day for June 16 is:
hew • \HYOO\ • (verb) 1. to cut or fell with blows (as of an ax); 2. to give shape to with or as if with an ax; 3. to conform, adhere A little more information about today’s word: "Hew" is a strong, simple word of Anglo-Saxon descent. It can suggest actual ax-wielding, or it can be figurative: "If . . . our ambition hews and shapes [our] new relations, their virtue escapes, as strawberries lose their flavor in garden-beds" (Ralph Waldo Emerson). It's easy to see how the figurative "shape" sense of "hew" developed from the literal hacking sense, but what does chopping have to do with adhering and conforming? That sense first appeared in the late 1800s in the phrase "hew to the line." The "hew line" is a line marked along the length of a log indicating where to chop in order to shape a beam. "Hewing to the line," literally, is cutting along the mark—adhering to it—until the side of the log is squared. My sentence (using definition #3): It was simpler and cheaper to hew to tradition when it came to a wedding dress, Sylvia found out, and finally she gave up on the pale green satin gown she'd dreamed of. Based on Merriam-Webster's Collegiate® Dictionary, 10th Edition. Next sentence? |

Word of the day June 17
The Word of the Day for June 17 is:
interdigitate • \in-ter-DIH-juh-tayt\ • (verb) to become interlocked like the fingers of folded hands A little more information about today’s word: It probably won’t surprise you to learn that "interdigitate" comes from the prefix "inter-," as in "interlock," and the Latin word "digitus," meaning "finger." "Digitus" also gave us "digit," which is used in English today to refer to (among other things) the finger or toe of any animal. "Interdigitate" usually suggests an interlocking of things with fingerlike projections, such as muscle fibers or the teeth of an old-fashioned bear trap. The word can also be used figuratively to imply a smooth interweaving of disparate things, such as the blending of two cultures within a shared region. My sentence: "The edges [of the expansion joints built into many bridges] often are shaped like combs, the teeth of one interdigitating with teeth of the other." -- The Washington Post, January 14, 1998 Based on Merriam-Webster's Collegiate® Dictionary, 10th Edition.

Word of the day June 18
The Word of the Day for June 18 is:
kismet • \KIZ-met\ • (noun, often capitalized) fate A little more information about today’s word: Is it your fate to tie macrame while drinking coffee and eating sherbet in a minaret? That would be an unusual destiny, but if it turns out to be your kismet, you will owe much to Turkish and Arabic. We borrowed "kismet" from Turkish in the 1800s, but it ultimately derives from the Arabic "qismah," meaning "portion" or "lot." Several other terms in our bizarre opening question (namely, "macrame," "coffee," "sherbet," and "minaret") have roots in those languages too. In the case of "macrame" and "minaret," there is a little French influence as well. "Coffee" and "macrame" also have Italian relations, and "sherbet" has an ancestor in a Persian name for a type of cold drink. My sentence: "It was at this point in his career that kismet arranged his meeting with the young man who one day was to begin the undoing of it all." -- Theodore Bonnet, The Mudlark Based on Merriam-Webster's Collegiate® Dictionary, 10th Edition.
