Christmas Reading

4649_popup.jpgI’ll be taking this one to Boomerang for some down time between surf sessions after Christmas, as it just arrived in the door today from the good folk at AK Press.

I’ll make a break from reading this steaming pile of wasted time. (Disclosure: I HAD to read it. For work.)

Apparently we’re responsible for Babe, Dude, Wanker, Goon, and most of America’s vocabulary, although some of the links seem a stretch, and I’d question some of the Irish vocab.

Still. Interesting read.

That book and its author were familar to me from an article or two I read a while ago, which more than confirm your suspicions.
