Paul’s Awesome English Dictionary: Today’s Phrase – Etch a Sketch Memory

Posted on April 8, 2024 by pauldelancey

How many times has this happened to you? You committed something to memory because it was important. Just moments later, it’s forgotten. A painstakingly created mental portrait gone like that. What shook loose that memory from its resident brain cell? Nothing really, just like your elaborate pictures made with Etch A Sketch(tm.)

Posted on April 7, 2024 by pauldelancey

How many times has this happened to you? You wake up tired. Really, really tired. Too tired to change out of pajamas. But it’s important to look spiffy when you go out into the world. But you don’t have to go out into the world. It’s your day off or you’re retired. Screw it, the pajamas stay. So there.

But then you find yourself answering the front door. In your pajamas.

Paul’s Awesome English Dictionary – Today’s Word – Tempid

Posted on April 4, 2024 by pauldelancey

We are all brilliant, every last one of us. We have scintillating ideas all the time. So, why aren’t we given more credit for our intelligence? Why hasn’t the world been turned into a paradise? Why aren’t a hundred Nobel prizes given out every year?

Because we didn’t write them down the moment our glorious idea illuminated our brain. Something happened. Something distracted us. Taxes perhaps or plain, old, ordinary chores needed to be done. And we forgot. The world will never be improved.  People won’t ever look at us and say, “He made our lives ever so much better, what a wonderful person.”

Posted on March 26, 2024 by pauldelancey

How many times has this happened to you? You climbed Mt. Everest just using toothpicks only to learn that no one saw you reach the top.

Paul’s Awesome English Dictionary – Today’s Word: Obliviousy

Posted on March 2, 2024 by pauldelancey

Sure, we often find ourselves in a situation where we’re unaware of something; being oblivious to things around us. Sometimes, we know we’re supposed to looking for something right in front of our face. In other instances, we ‘re unaware that we’re being unaware of something,

If only there existed a word to describe this scenario. There is, it’s:

Paul’s Awesome English Dictionary – Today’s Phrase: Nasal Excavation

Posted on February 29, 2024 by pauldelancey

How many times has this happened to you? You’re at a party you didn’t really want to attend. You gravitate to a corner of the room. You have nothing to do to pass the time. So you pick your nose. Even though you’re minding your business, some oaf shouts out, “Look at that loser, he’s picking his nose.”

You sense that only if you could come up with a fancy, scientific phrase for nose picking, you could intimidate the clod into silence.

This party necessity leads us to

Paul’s Awesome English Dictionary – Today’s Word: Hopolodo

Posted on February 22, 2024 by pauldelancey

Sometimes a word is so useful and necessary that it has been crying in the ether to be coined. Once used, we all wonder, “It’s so obvious now. How do we ever get along without that word?”

In today’s blog, we celebrate such an occurrence.

We’ve all found change on the ground. Lucky for us! But not so fortunate for the person who lost the money. We’ve been that person as well. Maybe we lost a dollar. Maybe we lost it in the 60s when we could have purchased a simple board game or even 20 packs of Topps(tm) baseball cards. Most often we lost this change through a hole in our pocket.

This financial loss leads us to

Sometimes a word is so useful and necessary that it has been crying in the ether to be coined. Once used, we all wonder, “It’s so obvious now. How do we ever get along without that word?”

In today’s blog, we celebrate such an occurrence.

We’re often told the only way to success, to accomplishment, is by diligent activity and hard work. But sometimes we find great things happen to us by doing absolutely nothing, zilch, didly. Which leads us to:
