Here's my new word for today: logorrhea (law-guh-REE-uh), which means an excessive use of words. I've heard the phrase "diarrhea of the mouth", but I never knew there was actually a word for it. Logorreha is derived from the Greek word logos ("word") and rhein ("to flow").
Oddly enough, while the Greek word rhein is also part of the word diarrhea, I don't believe "dia" means poop.
OK, that's enough scatological talk for today. See? There's another word for you. Don't say that blogs can't be educational too.
It beats a poke in the eye with a sharp stick!
