RANDOM THOUGHT OF THE DAY:how i caught a "cold" in the summer, since i have yet to be anything but hot. (go double meanings..hehe) WORD OF THE DAY:purfle . PER-ful . (verb) : to ornament the border or edges of Example sentence: "The [guitar] top is Sitka spruce purfled in abalone." (Marti Davis, Knoxville News-Sentinel, May 15, 2002) Did you know? Today we use "purfle" mostly in reference to setting a decorative inlaid border around the body of a guitar or violin, a process known as "purfling." In the past, "purfle" got the most use in connection with adornment of garments. "The Bishop of Ely . . . wore a robe of scarlet . . . purfled with minever," reported an English clergyman in 1840, for example. We embellished our language with "purfle," first as "purfilen" in the 1300s, when we took it with its meaning from Middle French "porfiler." Related to "purfle" is "filigree," which is used as a noun for ornamental work made of fine wire, and also as a verb meaning "to adorn with filigree." "Purfle" and "filigree" share the Latin source "filum," which means "thread." WASN'T THAT BORING? I GET WORDS EMAILED TO ME EVERY DAY AND SOME ARE COOl, BUT OBVIOUSLY NOT TODAY'S...HEHE. FASTERLARD OF THE DAY (by request): A good meal at a fancy diner: $85 A beverace refill at a fancy diner: $2 Watching someone's waiter spill the meal on them: priceless There are some things money can buy; for everything else, there's Fasterlard. THAT'S ALL FOLKS!!!! I'M SO BORED, I'M QUITTING!! EVEN THOUGH THIS WAS A STINKY ENTRY, WELL, GET OVER THE STENCH AND WRITE SOMETHING!!!!
