intubulated

I am IN HERE, thanks for asking. I am going to India on the 29th, expecting martinimartini about the 25th.

I would like to suggest that on this page we supply definitions, though I refuse to be the first.

Otherwise, I am busy selling books. We haven't gotten to the English language countries yet, Ireland and England being targets, but I am awful close to covering publisher costs after which I get 50% minus 15 to my editor. The publisher will pay my agent. I will let you know when I get it on Amazon UK if I manage (in august).

reviews have been great so far, my favorite a woman in Belgium who missed her train stop because she was caught up in the book. Someone else shouted 'it's great' to my wife as she drove by her.

My reading has been haphazard til this past weekend when I picked up Slavoj Žižik's Defense of Lost Causes. Powys is shelved til the return from India.

Meanwhile I fell a long ways down some stairs in Maribor at a friend's apartment, which left me with two remarkable bruises on my ass and a pain in the back that causes an unseemly limp. I also fell into a pond there and rode a Lipizzaner with an enormous cock that I touched briefly, shocking my friend's father, my reason being that it is not something many can say they have done. Tonight I was teaching my son how to whittle and gave him an excellent lesson in what not to do, slicing my thumb so bad it was still bleeding three hours later when I took the bandage off. The second lesson is to leave the bandage on.

35Porius
Modificato: Giu 21, 2011, 4:45 pm

Rick old boy you've got to be more careful. Or you will whittle yourself away to next to nothing. I' still pondering the pond story.

How did you manage to come in such close proximity with the horses member. A members' only moment, doubtless. Who needs Powys, already.

On the way to a book event in Ljubljana I was given by neighbors of a woman we picked up in mountains near Lj a large shot of Slivo, about 2 deciliters, which is to say at least two shots. dictated by politesse I quaffed it...had a good night.

Al Kaline. A single to right field. Al would lope in and gather in the ball and prepare to make the routine throw to second. Meanwhile the guy who hit the single would take a big turn towards second, for no apparent reason, and Al of course bluffed his routine throw to second, snapped a laser to first as the runner tried desperately to double back. Result: out by five feet. They don't play that game within the game these days, do they?

kerf

(kɜːf)

Forms: α. 1 cyrf, 4 kyrf, 5 kirf, 6 kyrfe. β. 4–7 kerfe, (4–5 -ff(e), 4– kerf, (9 dial. curf, kurf). γ. See carf.

OE. cyrf, app.:—*kurƀi-, f. *kurƀ- (cf. ON. kurf-r chip, kyrfa to cut), ablaut-form of *kerƀ, stem of OE. ceorfan to carve. Hence ME. kirf, giving later kerf and karf; cf. kernel and carnel from ME. kirnel, OE. cyrnel. Cf. (with different stem vowel) Du. kerf, Ger. kerb, kerbe; also ON. kjarf, Icel. kerfi, bundle (of twigs, etc.), Sw. kärfve sheaf.

1.1 The act of cutting or carving; a cut, stroke; †power of cutting. Now rare.

c 1000 Ælfric Hom. II. 406 ‘Ælc treow ðe ne wyrcð godne wæstm bið forcorfen.‥’ Be ðisum cyrfe spræc se Hælend on oðre stowe. 13‥ Gaw. & Gr.

Zola's Débâcle 289 Then, with a single kerf of the saw, he lopped them off.

†b.1.b Humorous term for a company of pantry-men. Obs.

2.2 The result of cutting; the incision, notch, slit, etc., made by cutting, esp. by a saw.

1523 Fitzherb. Husb. §136 Bycause it a saw is thyn, it wyll cut the narowe kyrfe. 1664 Evelyn Sylva (1776) 132 Cut your kerfe near to the ground, but have a care the Tree suffer not in the fall. 1792 J. Belknap Hist. New Hampsh. III. 156 The felling of such a tree must require much labour, since those of but one inch have eight or ten strokes, distinctly marked, and a very good kerf is allowed. 1812–16 J. Smith Panorama Sc. & Art I 99 The saw, when cutting, takes away the wood at the two sides of the kerf. 1890 W. J. Gordon Foundry 121 A matter-of-fact place is a sawmill.‥ Its great problem is how to minimize the ‘kerf’, the kerf being the track of the saw.

†b.2.b fig. The furrow made by a ship's keel. rare.

c 1422 Hoccleve Learn to Die 203 As a ship þat is sayllynge‥Whos kerfe nat fownden is whan past is shee.

3.3 The place at which a tree or branch is or has been cut across; the cut end or surface either on a felled or pruned tree.

c 1420 Pallad. on Husb. i. 190 Turne euery kirf aweyward from the grape; Lest droppyng do hit harm. 1664 Evelyn Sylva 85 A Tree‥thirteen foot diameter at the Kerf, or cutting place neer the Root. Ibid. 92 One foot of Timber neer the Root (which is the proper kerfe, or cutting place) is worth three farther off. 1677 Plot Oxfordsh. 161 The Oaks had none of them any roots, but plainly cut off at the kerf, as is used in felling Timber. 1868 Blackley Word Gossip (1869) 161 (E.D.D.) A woodman will say that a felled tree ‘measures so and so, not counting the kurf’.

4.4 A piece or quantity cut off; a cutting (of anything).

1678 Phillips (ed. 4) App. s.v., Among Woodmen Kerf signifieth a parcel of Loppings of wood. 1730 in Swayne Churchw. Acc. Sarum (1896) 352 Carrying away a Kerfe of half a foot of earth. 1890 Cent. Dict., Kerf, in a cloth-shearing machine, the wool taken off in one passage through the cutter.

5.5 Comb. as †kerf-shears.

1356 in Riley Mem. London (1868) 283 4 small anfeldes for goldsmiths, and 2 kerfsheres.

Hence ˈkerfed a., having kerfs or slits. ˈkerfing-machine, a machine for sawing kerfs in a board (Knight Dict. Mech. 1875).

331Mr.Durick
Dic 3, 2012, 3:56 pm

I cannot find in Google images what kerf means to me. When you cross cut a board on a table saw you can get a neat line of sawdust right alongside the cut (which itself apparently can be called a kerf); I have heard that line of sawdust called a kerf.

Escargot is such a good word that I considered just putting it in again. But then, this morning, I discovered 'cronut.'

402Mr.Durick

A really buttery fresh croissant with plenty of very garlicky snail butter added and so loaded with escargot that the croissant can't hold it all -- that's a good word.

Robert

PS They haven't quite achieved it, but this might be something to eat while waiting for the real thing.

I don't know. I don't eat too much from the class gastropoda. But then again, I rarely eat anything that doesn't have a backbone...

405Mr.Durick
Mag 30, 2013, 2:37 am

Now there's a good reason not to eat summer squash -- no backbone. On the other hand 'summer squash' is a mighty fine word, in a manner of speaking.
