All Fired Up–Its a New BBQ

Today we put together the new bbq – there were only two million parts and 100 pages of instructions… good news though… we were still talking to each other when it was all done. We christened it with some Italian sausages that we picked up at Costco – and washed it down with a cold beer – delicious but naughty.

One of the blogs I read is called “Cake Wreaks” – people send her photos of decorated gone wrong. Sometimes the decorations are weird (as in today’s post), sometimes it’s atrocious spelling, sometimes it’s all of the above. You have to laugh and wonder “what are people thinking” and “where did they go to school”?

Today’s word of the day is vituperate (vye-TOO-puh-rayt verb - 1: to abuse or censure severely or abusively ; 2: to use harsh condemnatory language). I tend to avoid movies and tv programs that are violent and use vituperate dialogue. It doesn’t make me feel happy.

A will finds a way.

vituperate ... If I hear vituperate dialogue I change the channel.

Thankfully the languge on my blog posts never tends towards the vituperate (do you think that's right?).
