A is for Ahem!… Bboy !?!
Antidisestablishmentterrianism. (sp?)
Just exactly what does that word mean, anyway? Is it really a word? I heard it when I was a youngster, and it stuck.
Antidisestablishmentarianism
A is also for that damn catch phrase from Zero Wing.
It’s a doctrine against the dissolution of somethingorother.
The exact definition is in my Richard Lederer book back home, and that’s all I remember of it right now.
Alligators all around
Bursting balloons
Catching colds
Doing dishes
Entertaining Elephants…
ASS WEASELS!!!
Ok, let’s break this down…
ism: an Idea
anti: against
dis: see anti
establishmentarian:1. member of the social establishment: a supporter or member of the establishment in a society or social group 2. member of established church: a supporter or member of an established church
So, antidisestablishmentarianism means the idea of being against the destruction of the church of what-have-you.
And now back to your regularly scheduled program.
Allemande left, swing your partner
Now it’s time to do-si-do

Boys turn right and around we go

Aardvark, not very spiny
Atlatl, a word that sounds Incan

(Well, whaddaya know? Until I copied this out of my Webster’s I had no idea that I’ve been misspelling “Phoenician” wrong all of these years. You learn something every day.
Maybe THAT’S why I didn’t get that job at McDonald’s in 1983. I’ve always wondered…)

Tomorrow, I’m going to the ‘West Coast Premeire’ of In The Blood. Lori Suzan Parks started writing “Fucking A” a take off on The Scarlet Letter, which eventually morphed into In the Blood.
“Fuckin’ A” is a better title, IMHO, but this is a great piece.
One of the actors slipped me a script.
Plays are Ear; Movies are Eye. What Parks does with silence in this play is way cool; if the director, Peter Dubois, is up to it, this is going to be awesome.
& he hasn’t let me down so far, so signs are good.
A to me has always been red.
Not to get nitpicky or anything, but it’s spelled angina.
A is also for asparagus.

I am really wondering why that was the first A word that came to my mind.
You think that’s weird? My first A word thought was Acetycholinesteraise.
I think that’s the spelling…
Yeesh.
