1. Okay, what the heck is a Chobit?
2. Pie is good but cobbler better. Preferrably peach.
3. Fudge brownie cheesecake trumps them all!!!
4. All else fails, go for expensive chocolate bars, like Godiva's.

Word of the Day for Tuesday April 11, 2006
panoply PAN-uh-plee, noun:
1. A splendid or impressive array.
2. Ceremonial attire.
3. A full suit of armor; a complete defense or covering.
Every step taken to that end which appeases the obsolete
hatreds and vanished oppressions, which makes easier the
traffic and reciprocal services of Europe, which encourages
nations to lay aside their precautionary panoply, is good
in itself.
-- Winston Churchill, quoted in [1]This Blessed Plot, by
Hugo Young
The beige plastic bedpan that had come home from the
hospital with him after his deviated-septum operation...
now held ail his razors and combs and the panoply of
gleaming instruments he employed to trim the hair that grew
from the various features of his face.
-- Michael Chabon, [2]Werewolves in Their Youth
To the east, out over the Ocean, the winter sky is a
brilliant panoply of stars and comets, beckoning to
adventurers, wise and foolish alike, who seek to divine its
mysteries.
-- Ben Green, [3]Before His Time
Labor was hard pressed to hold the line against erosion of
its hard-won social wage: the panoply of government-paid
benefits such as unemployment insurance, workers'
compensation, Medicare, and Social Security.
-- Stanley Aronowitz, [4]From the Ashes of the Old
_________________________________________________________
Panoply is from Greek panoplia, "a full suit of armor," from
pan, "all" + hoplia, "arms, armor," plural of hoplon,
"implement, weapon."

choler KOLL-ur; KOLE-ur, noun:
Irritation of the passions; anger; wrath.
And at last he seems to have found his proper subject: one that genuinely engages his intellect, truly arouses his characteristic choler and fills him with zest.
-- "Black Humor': Could Be Funnier", New York Times, January 12, 1998
I found my choler rising.
-- Samuel Richardson, A Collection of the Moral and Instructive Sentiments... in the Histories of Pamela, Clarissa, and Sir Charles Grandison
Choler is from Latin cholera, a bilious disease, from Greek kholera, from khole, bile.

Word of the Day for Monday, April 24, 2006
rebarbative ree-BAR-buh-tiv, adjective:
Serving or tending to irritate or repel.
Over the past couple of hours a lot of rebarbative, ulcerated and embittered people had been working hard at bedding their resentments down in sensory-deprivation tanks full of alcohol.
-- Will Self, The Sweet Smell of Psychosis
I still think this true, yet can't help regret the unretrievable hours lavished on so much rebarbative critical prose, convinced that the nearly impenetrable must be profound.
-- Michael Dirda, "In which our intrepid columnist visits the Modern Language Association convention and reflects on what he found there", Washington Post, January 28, 2001
Rebarbative comes from French rébarbatif, "stern, surly, grim, forbidding," from Middle French rebarber, "to be repellent," from re- (from the Latin) + barbe, "beard" (from Latin barba).

equipoise EE-kwuh-poiz; EK-wuh-, noun:
1. A state of being equally balanced; equilibrium; -- as of moral, political, or social interests or forces.
2. Counterbalance.
What matters is the poetry, and the truest readings of it "are those which are sensitive to the strangeness of Marvell's genius: its delicate equipoise, held between the sensual and the abstract, its refusal to treat experience too tidily, the uncanny tremor of implication that makes the poems' lucid surfaces shimmer with a sense of something undefined and undefinable just beneath."
-- James A. Winn, "Tremors of Implication", New York Times, July 9, 2000
I cannot see how the unequal representation which is given to masses on account of wealth becomes the means of preserving the equipoise and the tranquillity of the commonwealth.
-- Edmund Burke, "Reflections on The Revolution In France"
Our little lives are kept in equipoise
By opposite attractions and desires.
-- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, "Haunted Houses"
Equipoise is equi-, "equal" + poise, from Middle English poisen, "to balance, weigh," from Old French peser, pois-, ultimately from Latin pensare, "to weigh."

harridan HAIR-uh-din, noun:
A worn-out strumpet; a vixenish woman; a hag.
With the insight of hindsight, I'd have liked to have been able to protect my mother from the domineering old harridan, with her rough tongue and primitive sense of justice, but I did not see it like that, then.
-- Angela Carter, Shaking a Leg
Whatever compassion we may feel towards Seraphie, charged with managing the Beyle household and provided with little in the way of emotional or material recompense, evidence scarcely softens Stendhal's portrait of an ignorant, vindictive, mean-spirited harridan.
-- Jonathan Keates, Stendhal
Even before that, for the first year and a half, as reports and rumors seeped out that she was a harridan, yelling and throwing things at subordinates as well as at her husband and his aides, she would often think to herself, "What's going on here? Why are some of these people slandering me or my husband on a daily basis? Why is all this stuff happening?"
-- David Maraniss, "First Lady of Paradox", Washington Post, January 15, 1995
As the vulgar, scornful, desperate Martha, Miss Hagen makes a tormented harridan horrifyingly believable.
-- Howard Taubman, "The Theater: Albee's 'Who's Afraid'", New York Times, October 15, 1962
Harridan probably comes from French haridelle, "a worn-out horse, a gaunt woman."

microcosm MY-kruh-koz-uhm, noun:
1. A little world. Hence, man or human nature as a supposed epitome of the world or universe (compare macrocosm).
2. A smaller, representative system having analogies to a larger system.
The monarch and his followers thought of the court as a microcosm of how the kingdom ought to be, the harmonious expression of a social order centred on the monarch.
-- John Brewer, The Pleasures of the Imagination
There is a classic Jimmy Stewart movie, Magic Town, about "Grandview," a small town in the Midwest that is a perfect statistical microcosm of the United States, a place where the citizens' opinions match perfectly with Gallup polls of the entire nation.
-- James S. Fishkin, The Voice of the People
New York saw itself as a quasi-independent political and cultural entity that was both a microcosm of and a model for the nation as a whole.
-- Robert A. M. Stern, New York 1880
Microcosm comes from Greek mikros kosmos, "small world."

gloaming GLOH-ming, noun:
Twilight; dusk.
The children squealed and waved and smiled, their teeth flashing white in the gloaming.
-- Evan Thomas, Robert Kennedy: His Life
It was the gloaming, when a man cannot make out if the nebulous figure he glimpses in the shadows is angel or demon, when the face of evening is stained by red clouds and wounded by lights.
-- Homero Aridjis, 1492: The Life and Times of Juan Cabezon of Castile (translated by Betty Ferber)
Arrived at the village station on a wintry evening, when the gloaming is punctuated by the cheery household lamps, shining here and there like golden stars, through the leafless trees.
-- Margaret Sangster
Gloaming comes from Old English glomung, from glom, "dusk."
