Words We Use

Daily I use words and I know what they mean layman wise and I can use them in a sentence but I might know the exact definition. In an effort to make us all smarter I have looked up the definitions to the following.

Respect [ri-spekt] ~~ verb (used with object)

1. to hold in esteem or honor: I cannot respect a cheat.
2. to show regard or consideration for: to respect some one's rights.
3. to refrain from intruding upon or interfering with: to respect a person's privacy.
4. to relate or have reference to.

Kosher [koh-sher]

1. Judaism. a. fit or allowed to be eaten or used, according to the dietary or ceremonial laws: kosher meat; kosher dishes; a kosher tallith.
b. adhering to the laws governing such fitness: a kosher restaurant.

2. Informal. a. proper; legitimate.
b. genuine; authentic.

And finally paranormal...[par-uh-nawr-muhl]

–adjective of or pertaining to the claimed occurrence of an event or perception without scientific explanation, as psychokinesis, extrasensory perception, or other purportedly supernatural phenomena.

Remember a time when kosher was a slang term for liking something? "Dude, that board is so kosher".

Remember when it was all about respect? Actually I think a certain group of people were all about the disrespect. "Don't come up in my house and disrespect me".

And paranormal. Maybe not the best choice for daily word use but I believe I have paranormal sensitivities if that makes sense. If not let me try to make some sense of it....I met a man named Tony Chambliss at the Aids Foundation in San Angelo, Texas. As he was giving me a tour of the building which was an older home, he made mention of Ms. Sarah the residential ghost. Tony told me he had always been sensitive to those types of energies & he explained the phenomena of hairs on the back of your neck standing up and how things in the corner of your eye were usually paranormal activity. In the home I live in now, an older home, maybe 60 years old, I get flashes of movement in the hallway all of the time. There are two entrances to my hallway & I experience flashes or "blurries" of color and light in both. Sorta freaky but not really.

Ok post is too long...stopping now.

My dad always used to say "are we kosher?" as in are we good or in agreement of something.

Very interesting part about the paranormal stuff. I believe we have an extra, um, non living, cat in our home. It very often jumps onto the bed behind me, and one evening, my husband came into the living room and thinks he sat on it in the dark.

I love the word acquiesce. (I had to look up how to spell it) I didn't know how to spell it, I could define it will enough, but I damn sure could use it in a sentence. Happy new year K

Word verification: Alabama beats the living dog crap outta Texas.

I used "Vacuous" a week ago at work... I got blank stares in return.

I rest my case.

If I admit that I remember using the word "Kosher" does that make me old?

And really? Those flashes are are spirits or something? That's just freaky.

And have I mentioned that the house I grew up in was haunted. Oh YES it was!!! But they weren't mean or anything. We would just hear people walking around upstairs, or going up and down the stairs, things like that.
