From time to time, Webster adds words into the dictionary. With our vocabulary constantly changing to accommodate our youth and the way we live, there is a need to add more and more words to the good ol’ dictionary.

Of all the things that could have been passed down to me from my family, couldn’t it have been a large inheritance or a trust fund!!

Herniated Discs
Never paid much attention to them, until I found out that it was not something you brought your car into the mechanic to be replaced during a standard tune-up.
