Schmaffy,

Thanks for the update.

I think the correct spelling of Andy's weekend destination is "Timbuktu" not "Timbuctu."

Done.

Awesome! work!!

Maybe Gio might add it to his book as an Appendix..

[luddite lady]

I was just scrolling through the glossary and I noticed it still references Aug. 4 as the presumable "end". After they announced the second Jones Beach show, we all had a lot of thoughts swimming in our heads, and none of them were: "Golly gee! Now we'll have to amend the glossary! Shucks, how inconvenient!"

I'd change the date, but certainly not the presumably part.

SHIT SHIT SHIT!!! I updated the wrong version. SHIT SHIT SHIT!!!

Thanks, luddite lady, for pointing that out!! My mistake. I actually HAD revised that def., and then revised an outdated copy of the dictionary. So there is other stuff missing, that I shall rectify immediately.

Rookie mistake - I should know better.

I will consolidate my two versions and repost on Monday.

I feel appropriately smote.

E.M.

[luddite lady]

Hey, I wasn't smitin'. I was just sayin'. You've done an amazing job with this dictionary. Your talk of being smote and your picture in the avatar makes it look like *I* really did some smiting. I aint the smiting kind, dear.
