projectsfun with dictionaries: two things I wish I'd thought of first
I'm officially the lamest dictionary lover ever for not coming up with either:
A) Webster's Daily, full of "found poetry from the first edition of Noah Webster's American Dictionary of the English Language (1828)." Choice gem:
Blink, n.
Blink of ice, is the dazzling whiteness about the horizon, occasioned by the reflection of light from fields of ice at sea.
OR
B) This thrilling variation [via boing boing] of the worn out "in your {noun} {verb}ing your {noun}s" meme. Not a particular fan of that meme generally, but this one is just too good for…um…adjectives.
