Spelling Bee in The Hoooooooouse!

May 18th, 2006

Just because I like to spend my time picking up random garbage in between news hits, I found myself holding one of those coffee cup coats they put on your hot double-foam non-fat decaf venti latte (ugh) at, oh, let’s say Farbucks. Anywho, the real reason why I picked it up is because it had a huge word on it and I am a word nerd. “Autochthonous”?! That is a word I have NEVER seen before. Do you know how rare it is to come across a word you have literally NEVER seen before? Very, very rare. Especially considering that I subscribe to dictionary.com’s Word of the Day (told you I was a word nerd) and I read William Safire every week.

Do they put different words on the coffee cup coats every day? It almost makes me want to go for daily, overpriced coffee! Almost.
