This thread is driving me crazy. It's the last week of 2015, so scr*w the rules. All week is Friday.
I encountered an omen this morning. On my local NPR station--KPCC--there was a discussion of death and how it's clinically determined and officially declared. It's not a bipolar condition, according to the researcher interviewed. There was explicit reference to Princess Bride, where the Black Knight, in seriously dire straits, was described as being somewhere on a continuum from fully alive to fully dead. He was, at one juncture, mostly dead. A marvelous film. Never read the book. Only know the 'cheeky' adaptation by Rob Reiner. So what was the misunderstood word? INCONCEIVABLE. A word immortalized on screen by Wallace Shawn. And, to bend the conversation back to Mainframe, a word that some of us have used emphatically to describe an 'impossible' situation encountered in our daily work. Let's hope that in 2016 we find a happier conclusion than Vizinni did. . . .
