Jello Freak



Have you ever "invented" a word, a phrase, an expression and then perpetuated it? Letterman has one,"In My Pants!" And his production company is called World Wide Pants. A few years ago my daughter Abby, was I.M.ing and walked away from the computer. I sat down and typed JelloFreak in all the conversations she was having. No, it means nothing. Just a fun, weird, invented, word.

Now, here's another question... do you have a favorite word? or two? My favorite common word is DOORKNOB. It just sounds fun. The other, less common word that I learned 30 years ago is ROTUND. And I got in trouble for calling my english teacher rotund in a paper I wrote. Look it up, if you care.
