here are 2 more I came across today in TC Boyle's The Inner Circle
hor·rip·i·la·tion Function: noun
The bristling of the body hair, as from fear or cold; goose bumps
mast Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Old English mæst; akin to Old High German mast food, mast, and probably to Old English mete food
: nuts (as acorns) accumulated on the forest floor and often serving as food for animals (as hogs)
Obviously I already knew the word 'mast', just not this usage
AND.....as much as I hate to do it again so soon, I just found some more monkey news. ''Something very unusual happened," said David Reich, one of the report's authors and a geneticist at the Broad and Harvard Medical School.
yup I agree--very unusual. I think this is more than enough for one day--my plantars wart update will have to wait til another day.
