Word of the Day

Displaced and Dispossessed

The word of the day is kerfaffle. Now, to find it in a dictionary. . . Ah, kerfuffle; causing or being a commotion, disorderly, a state of agitation. Also, carfaffle, kurfuffle, and kerfuffle. Scot origin. None of my dictionaries contains this word. Time for new dictionaries and amazon.com, betterworldbooks.com browsing.

Incredulous and scandalized by the state of America.
