Just thought I'd take a snapshot of this. Feels like Obernet history   What are the odds, eh? Of course, I've ruined it by making this post |

Er... that would be the 7th of July.
Still, a good thought. Most portentous.
All: You just wanted an excuse to say "portentous".
Of course I did. It's a lovely word.

portent - a sign of something about to happen; "he looked for an omen before going into battle"

i love reading dictionaries! i open the dictionary to a random page and see what lovely new words i can learn! i have a fantastic set of dictionaries - Encyclopaedia edition ones! - so there are some crazy words in there. for instance...*opens dictionary* 'erepsin': An enzyme or group of associated enzymes found in the intestinal and pancreatic juices of animals...  *ewwwwww* okay, not a great choice, but it was the first word i saw, and i didn't know it existed before |

i love dictionaries and thesauruses but thesauruses sometime confuse me. I like dictionaries better and especially online dictionaries - there are so many more words on the web!
