Made-up Words
If the President can be The Decider and misunderestimate situations, then I can make up words too. There's Neezuls, which was my placeholder name for this blog, 'til I came up with the much more appropriate Filter & Splice. This morning, in that dusty state between dreaming and waking, the word "glio" came to me. I looked in my dictionary. It isn't a word on its own, although a couple of words - gliobastoma & glioma - start with it. They have to do with glial cells. If "glio" was a word on its own, how would you define it?
