Um. Uh Oh, Here I go. (gee, that rhymes, maybe I'm a cowboy poet after
all.)
There once was a "Dictionary Of Common Usage" published back in the
1970's. It sold well. It was back when the stuffed shirts wouldn't
recognize "ain't" as a word. In response, the Oxford English Dictionary
now recognizes "ain't" as a word.
So, what's a floor? Well, let's think about that. I recently heard a
proud owner of a big sailboat usher guests on board, saying "You Have to
Check Out The Bathroom." Okay, the boat is only five feet longer than
mine, and I don't have a frickin' bathroom. (BTW, I think "Frickin'" is
probably a word now...)
This whole linguistic exercise is even more amusing if you talk about
your sole. I mean, really, do boats have soles?
Is winter over yet?
