Meh Is Now A Word
‘Meh’: Apathetic expression enters dictionary
LONDON (AP) — At least someone is excited about “meh.” The expression of indifference or boredom has gained a place in the Collins English Dictionary after generating a surprising amount of enthusiasm among lexicographers.
Publisher HarperCollins announced Monday the word had been chosen from terms suggested by the public for inclusion in the dictionary’s 30th anniversary edition, to be published next year. . .
Thank you. Thank you.
First off, I would like to thank God, cause He’s the One who made all this possible.
Next, my lovely wife-to-be Mandy for supporting me through the times on this journey when I just thought I wasn’t going to make it.
Lastly, I would like to thank the little people I had to step on to get here. Without their supple backs I would not have been able to spring into such prominence.
Again, thank you. Thank you all.
Now I need to buy this shirt
Poetry And Marriage
“Because the condition of marriage is worldly and its meaning communal, no one party can be solely in charge. What you alone think it ought to be, it is not going to be. Where you alone think you want it to go, it is not going to go. It is going where the two of you–and marriage, time, life, history, and the world–will take it. you do not know the road; you have committed your life to a way. In marriage, as in poetry, the given word implies the acceptance of a form that is never entirely of one’s own making. When understood seriously enough, a form is a way of accepting and of living within the limits of creaturely life.”
~ Wendel Berry, “Poetry and Marriage,” Standing by Words

I just wrote a paper on this, but my words are not as profound as his, but if you would like to read them clicky. <--
