Bush's Cacodemon is trying to gate

A fantastic house for Trent Lott? Such compassion from the man navigating the khouros of de nile. Phantoms and their fantastic portic porches? Oh dear...It sounds as if his cacodemon might just be trying to gate. Wake up, people!!!

7. It means evil spirit

Or nightmare, according to dictionary.com

Looking up the definition sure was easier than being cryptic and denigrating those not knowing the word.

8. It is a recognized disorder in the field of psychology

It is a recognized disorder in the field of psychology known as cacodemonia or cacodemonomania. It's not merely something those crazy greeks thought up. I assume that most people know about google.com, and I gave them a link to one of the best online etymology references I have found.

12. Bush's two halves are out of sync.

Edited on Mon Sep-05-05 11:37 PM by aion

The montage from Malloy's team has the mayor saying "Lickity-ssssp-quick". Bush's two halves are out of sync. Split or cracked is the same.

You must be! Because I don't know WTF you're talking about, and I've been around the globe a few times, in a few different languages.

14. The language shift is similar to evolution

Edited on Tue Sep-06-05 07:31 AM by aion

Most will not see such phenomena unless they're willing to analyze both the regions and the time periods. Proto-English is Proto-German for all practical purposes.

You can have fun with this one:

"Æt Eower Heorte Ut", Wyclife

(hint: Pronounce it the way the Amish would)

I also have a video on my blog site which goes into much more detail than I can here: http://www.aionblog.com/?postid=115

The Stupid, Illiterate, Filthy, Syntactically and Temporally-Challenged, Bar-Bar Morons should go back from whence they came!
