Making up for lost time...

To make up for my longer then intended absence in the blog sphere, I have two words of the week to last until the new year when I will return to regularly scheduled programming (which isn't all that scheduled to begin with).

First:

apophasis - noun: the raising of an issue by claiming not to mention it

As in, I'm not going to mention a little thing called economic depression, especially around the holidays.

Second:

jocund - adjective:
marked by or suggestive of high spirits and lively mirthfulness

As in, I hope everyone's holiday time is jocund and leaves everyone ready and excited for a new year.
