Flexicon and Cars

Flexicon is the 'art' of melding two words together to make a new one, for example 'modern yet retro' becomes 'modtro' and 'Dancer-cise' comes from dancing and circumcise :-)

I managed to get hold of a Pontiac Grand Prix again last night from the car rental place, its exactly the same as the car in this picture. Very nice it is too. It could be desciribed in flexicon terms as being 'Cool-tastic'

However, while I was in the UK, I was unfortunate enough to have a Ford Focus. I would describe this car as being 'Shiny and Bright' :-D

The jet lag isn't too bad at the moment. I forced myself to stay up to 11 o'clock last night. I was watching the unfolding mining disaster story on CNN. I was quite relieved when they were reporting that 12 men had been found alive, just as I went to bed. I was quite shocked this morning when I woke up and logged on only to find that it had been mis-reported, and that only one man had been found alive.

I think I'll have a trip to Wal-Mart later today - I'd better check how much money I have left after xmas....
