Michelle Obama for President! **sorry...just had to throw that in..I was so impressed with her speech last night**

I do wish you wouldn't be like this. I as well as a number of other people have really appreciated what you've contributed to this site, but it's passing unfortunate that you have chosen to make a personal issue out of 42. If you want to leave, all for the best, I'm sure, but I think a lot of people, including yourself, would be happier if you would agree to just be calm about everything and, if criticizing a word, doing so in an impersonal way.
God bless,
T. -
Please see my comment on 42.

Thank you, Milo.

I think I can...I think I can... *huffing and puffing*

I do not know how to do it, c_b
-
Logos, have you thought of making a list for that purpose, as whichbe suggested?
-
I am asking my newly found friends on Wordie to help me find a new name. Any constructive ideas will be most welcome. Unkind suggestions will be dismissed as offal and served to Polynesian demonesses on a tiki platter.
-
Clearly a "Suggest new names for me" open list is in order for the Wordie Transition Team to assist.
-
You don't hear "Myrtle" too often these days.
-
As I mention at logos, rhema is an alternate word, as are alternate forms of logos itself.
-
How about Drickus? Or MarjorieMagnolia, or, to borrow a name from Dr Suess, plain old Snimm?
-
Logos, if you believe you were made in God's image, why would you have a problem with the word "logos" (which can just as easily refer to a group of corporate trademarks)?
Edit: Just askin'! No offense intended! -
Too bad "The Supreme Being" is already taken.
Anyone seen him lately? Maybe he's been taken up... -
I am seeking a new name on Wordie.org. I am not comfortable being associated with the Second Person of the Trinity. I will put out an alert when this happens.
-
Thank you, rolig.

Welcome to Wordie, logos! Thanks for your contributions so far. I wish you all the best in fulfilling the aspiration you mention in your profile.

Sorry about that, c_b. I have created my own 2 lists about mythical literary works and mythical music/composers with an Americam theme. Please feel free to add.

super-logos commented on the list mythic-america
And don't forget the following by Aaron Copland, a Jewish kid who became an American myth by epitomizingWASP Americana in terms of his musical oeuvre:
Billy the Kid
Rodeo
Fanfare For The Common Man
Appalachian Spring
Twelve Poems of Emily Dickinson
Our Town
Quiet City
and much more.
No list of American mythology is complete without this man and his story.

super-logos commented on the user seanahan
nice comments re "gaytarded." When we hold a word up to the light, it can lose its frightful character or perhaps provoke new, meaningful insights. A word is just a grouping of letters and has no power beyond what we assign to it. This is one of the underpinnings of semantics. I am with you.

super-logos commented on the word parking goddess
I can just see all those dressed-up Saturday afternoon ladies jockeying for parking spaces, close to the store entrance, at those Chevy Chase shopping districts. God forbid they should have to walk a few feet! **slipping on my mall walking tennis shoes**

super-logos commented on the word mu mu land
1991--KLF, The Justified Ancients, with Tammy Wynette belting out the words, along with some hard-pounding dance music. At full blast, it is stentorian. We're all bound for mu mu land !

super-logos commented on the word cape horn voice
A great cape, for us, can't be expressed in longitude or latitude alone. A great cape has a soul, with very soft, very violent shadows and colours. A soul as smooth as a child's, as hard as a criminals's. And that is why we go.
From the book, The Long Way, by Bernard Moitessier.

super-logos commented on the word short sellers
Traders who bet against a stock. One borrows a stock one does not own, sells it, then buys it back at a lower price, pocketing the difference. A naked short seller is someone who just sells the stock. It was thought this year that there were naked short sellers causing the stocks of banks & brokerages to decline via short selling, so a rule was promulgated to deter the practice of naked shorting.

According to the Urban Dictionary, a flying squirl occurs when a male spreads his scrotum, and jumps off an object in the house and onto his partner. Also, a website for collectibles.

super-logos commented on the word demesne
And in South Carolina, the Register of Deeds is known as Register Mesne Conveyance. A nice archaic throwback one might expect from one of the 13 original colonies !! **lifting a glass of gin and tonic while enjoying boiled shrimp on the piazza overlooking Charleston Harbor, where, as every good South Carolinian knows, the Atlantic Ocean begins, being formed by the confluence of the Ashley and Cooper Rivers.**

super-logos commented on the word the pattern
I always think it is a good idea to set forth the standards expected of everyone when he or she enters this site. Let it be known that the tone is high and civil. People do need to adjust because the web is still in Wild, Wild West mode. Some sites foment; others are dead; still others are quite stiff and formal. Ideas by their nature are in flux and can be powerful. Words are like that, too. What should be stressed here is that not only what you say but how you say it counts for a lot. **as I have learned**

super-logos commented on the list well-known-places-youve-never-heard-of
We need a list for well-known places no one has visited but wished he or she could, just to see what's going on there in order to appease his or her curiosity. Like Timbuktu. I would love to go there. It is a remote place (though not to the people from that area) and a place of ancient learning.

super-logos commented on the word brevard, north carolina
A lovely place in the southern Appalachians, over the border from South Carolina, with a music college that provides wonderful concerts year-round. Brevard is a regional draw. There is a gift shop downtown called the White Squirrel, a reference to the aforementioned squirrels. It is a gateway to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Asheville NC, and camping/hiking opportunities.
