One particular word that irritates the hell out of me is the (over)use of the word "event":

Weather forecasters now refer to a thunderstorm as a "rain event."

A car dealership will now have a "sales event."

I swear, I once even heard death described as a "life cessation event"!

Just boggles the mind...

Signor V.


"For me, there's only my wife..."

"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"

"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"

"It was a grass harp... And we listened."

"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"

"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."
