And now, let us talk about one of my favorite subjects: alcohol. I need to give a shoutout to Roger Wilco.
The liquor prices are also lower. It is definitely worth the $2 toll if you are buying stuff for a party. Plus, they're open on Sunday.

Of course you know, every once in a while the PSP sends somebody over to Roger Wilco to look for PA licence plates, and radio descriptions of the smuggler's cars to a partner at the nearest bridge.

Alright, well, that's enough for this edition, but here are some more words to ponder:
--contusion
--discombobulate
--dialysis
--wound
--Turkmenistan
--pyrite

I'm building a list or fun words from Stephenson's "The Diamond Age". http://chroot.ath.cx/fade/etexts/ste...DiamondAge.htm

So far:

faience
gallimaufry
concinnitous
propaedeutic
enchiridion
paroemiological

And while we're doing words, wouldn't it be "Quiero decir *algo*?
