song of the day: part of the plan / dan folgelberg
word of the day: Folia / A wild dance of Portuguese orign.

here's the weird thing about Dan Folgelberg's name. if you look up the section of the dictionary that has the words that most closely resembles his name (like, where would you put 'Folgelberg' in the dictionary), you discover that he would be put right in between 'folding' and 'folia'. are you thinking what i'm thinking? yeah, it's #!@% WEIRD alright, there are NO WORDS in English which begin with F-O-L-E, and also ZERO WORDS that begin with F-O-L-F and also ALSO ZERO words in English that begin with F-O-L-G. wha? huh? that shit is twisted. WHY ON EARTH WOULD THAT BE? WHYYYYY? can you imagine all the cool F'in' words we could have with those letters? we could have words like:

Folemid: a brown ring left around any human orifice, except the anal opening (e.g., a childs lips after eating brownies, the human ear canal after listening to a mud puddle, the nose after snorting heroine, and so on.)

Folebraie: a late 13th century saint who lived in Wales, said to have hidden, transcribed, and preserved segments of the Gnostic gospels, including portions of Q and the Gospel of Mary.

GAWD they'd be fucking awesome WORDS! that's just the tip of the iceberg. what of the promising F-O-L-F to English words?

Folfhuhaab: (slang) An undescended testicle in Viking tribes of Denmark, regarded as a designation of divinity in males.

Folfaudis: The state experienced after excarnation, before incarnation. Interim period between lifetimes in which the soul either recognizes itself as the clear, immutable Light, or successively 'bounces down' into the next lifetime in a corporeal realm.

and G, why no G? why is there yet another kick ass letter not being used subsequent to the F-O-L prefix is BEYOND me. conspiracy? yes, i'm glad you bring it up.
