If this were a highly read web log, I might start asking Merriam-Webster for some advertising stipend, as often as I mention them here. Anyway, I receive the Word of the Day (WotD) from Merriam-Webster. On May 19th, the word of the day was Colonel Blimp:
- Colonel Blimp \KER-nul-BLIMP\ (noun)
- : a pompous person with out-of-date or ultraconservative views
Interesting WotD.
