Aint Nothing But a Hodgepodge

Welcome to another edition of the Wednesday Hodgepodge. Come in, thaw out, and join the party!  Here are my answers to this week's questions-



1.  Every January 1st since 1976 Lake Superior University has published a list of words they'd like to see banished from the Queen's English.  Words may be banished due to misuse, overuse or just general uselessness (go here to read more about how the words were chosen).  Here are the words/phrases they'd like to see banished in 2014-

selfie, twerk/twerking, hashtag, Twittersphere, Mr. Mom, T-bone, _______on steroids, the suffixes-ageddon and -pocalypse added to anything and everything, from the world of politics the words-intellectually/morally bankrupt and Obamacare, and from the world of sports the words-adversity and fan base

Which of these words/phrases would you most like to see banished from everyday speech and why?  Is there a word not on the list you'd like to add?

TWERK/TWERKING!!! I agree with you Joyce they shouldn't make a BIG deal about it, what a role model for our younger generation to be learning!!!

2. What one unfinished project nags at you begging to be completed in this new year?
Getting all of my photos (old) scanned and put onto cd or dvd

3. When did you last have a bowl of soup?  What kind? Homemade or from a can? What's your favorite soup?
Don't laugh, it was really good but it was pork and sweet potato (bought at a local deli)
it was homemade most definitely

4. Snowed in, snowed under, snow job...which one most applies to your life in recent days, figuratively speaking?
snowed in and iced in!   We got a lovely 4" of snow on Sat with a sheet of ice on bottom
It is starting to drizzle again spose to be ice by morning

5. What's the funniest movie you've ever seen, or at least one of the funniest?
The Mask with Jim Carey, turbo the snail is pretty funny, Christmas Vacation

6. In general, would you say you're clumsy?
YES!!! I literally could trip over my own feet.  

7. Elvis Presley was born on Hodgepodge Day (January 8th) back in 1935.  Are you an Elvis fan?  What's your favorite Elvis tune?  If that's too hard, which Elvis tune do you dislike the least?  Click here for a list of his songs.
I was only 9 when he passed, however I do like some of his songs being a gymnast I did a routine
to Jailhouse rock and aint nothing but a hound dog...so those 2 probably my fav
and the dislike one hard to say that one, I like most of his songs.


8. Insert your own random thought here.
Don't forget your pets on these brutal artic temps we are having.  If you are cold, so are they
it only takes a matter of minutes in 13* weather for frost bite.
