WORD OF THE DAY

Longueur • \lawn-GURR \ • Noun - A dull & tedious passage or section (as of a book, play, or musical composition) — usually used in plural.

Cool story about coded messages to the French Underground in Woirld War II prior to the Normandy invasions on D-Day:

In preparation for Operation Overlord, the BBC had signaled to the French Resistance that the opening lines of the 1866 Verlaine poem “Chanson d’Automne” were to indicate the start of D-Day operations. The first three lines of the poem, Long sobs of autumn violins, meant that Operation Overlord was to start within two weeks. These lines were broadcast on 1 June 1944. The next set of lines, wound my heart with a monotonous languor, meant that it would start within 48 hours & that the resistance should begin sabotage operations especially on the French railroad system; these lines were broadcast on 5 June at 23:15.

WORD OF THE DAY

Ichthyomania • \ick-thee-oh-MANE-ee-yah/ • An excessive fascination with fish.

Ichthyomancy 1. Divination by means of the heads or entrails of fishes. 2. Divination by examining the heads and/or entrails of fish for prophetic signs or processing the next fish caught.

Bradford was in heaven. As a rabid ichtyomnaniac, working in the fish processing plant let him play with his semi-frozen charges as if they were ventriloquist dummies. Hi Folks! He would exclaim while working the little fish mouths at lunch. It was when he started using ichthyomancy in an attempt to predict the annual salmon runs in the Columbia River that his co-workers started to avoid him like week-old chum.
