| Martman | Morgentag! lache gerade darüber, was "A Word A Day" Heute kredenzt: ----------------------------------------------------------------- Goth (goth) noun A rude or uncivilized person. [From Goth, one of a Germanic tribe who invaded the Roman empire during the third, fourth and fifth centuries.] "Meanwhile, his (Newt Gingrich's) pronunciamentos swing wildly between statesman and Goth. One minute he sounds like Peter Rodino, the next like, well, Gingrich." Michael Powell, The Speaker, Holding His Tongue, The Washington Post, Oct 31, 1998. This week's theme: eponyms. ............................................................................ A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life. -Charles Robert Darwin, naturalist (1809-82), Q: Tomorrow is my friend's birthday and I forgot to send her a gift.
