Words...

    'In the beginning was the word , and the word was with God, and the word was God'. The Gospel according to St.John, Ch.1.

    That thar is probably the best known quote about words in the whole of the bible reading word.

    Words. Words? Words!

    Yes...they mean so much to us. Foundation of society as we know it.

    Just imagine a world without words.

    Go on do it.

    Impossible, isn't it.

    So, I'm starting this thread after the inspiration of ALASKAGIRL.

    Words all have meanings. There are words for everything. Even word itself is word.

    Words being so important and all, I want you all to bring along your amazing and rodomontade words.

    Pull out your dictionary and start browsing for words of any meaning at all. And then post 'em up here with details galore!! Origins etc.

    So, I'm gonna close with a word that you've probably already seen somewhere in this post...

    rodomontade = boastful, proud.

    Stay tuned kiddos,

    Mike the Insomniac...
