NEW WORDS
Image result for merriam webster
every year new words get formed
we my wife she and i notice new words just pop into
our use

the latest one we learned when friends were visiting
recently
i asked what does that mean
they said
just gts it
gts it
what do you mean gts
you know
google that stuff

so
my wife she and i
well especially her
says to me when i ask what that means
she says
gts it
with a smirk i might add

so
i looked at this website that listed words that were new
by the year they were introduced
you know
like
google it

i remember when i first heard that on my garden show
i heard the gardener guru say
just have them google it
so
i went to see what google meant
but
there was no google to google it
to see what it meant

we have come a long way havent we
why
just yesterday our screen door on our condo
wouldnt close good
so
i just googled how to adjust a screen door that wont close
there was a picture and explanation
on how to do it

that google
best word ever developed
besides
maybe
amazon

where did you get that
oh i amazoned it yesterday
it was on my porch when i got up this morning

heck
i wanted this particular liquid fertilizer i used in texas
since i couldnt find it here
so
i amazoned it
yep
it was on our steps the next day
how do that do that i asked someone last night

ok
google it they said

merriam webster dictionary folks have a site
you can type in the year to see what words
were developed that year
so
i picked out
the year i was born 1950
the year i graduated from high school 1968
the last year listed 2016

here are some examples

in 2016
there was just one word
utility token whatever that is

in 1950
action figure antimatter baby oil beautiful people
boobaby cardiac arrest charge card dwi dry wall
fold out mccarthyism pap smear shopping mall
sweat equity tank top
wonder what words they used for these things
before 1950

in 1968
alt key blind carbon copy better known now as bcc
car seat correction fluid chairbroil do rag m16
peace sign peace symbol talk radio travelers diarrhea
yippie

so i would say the most important word that has
come around since 1950
google
google it
gts it

ok ill add amazon

these have changed things  a lot
ok
ill add
facebook
smartphones

lets amazon our healthcare system

LETS AMAZON OUR HEALTHCARE SYSTEM
Image result for amazon
just the other day i was talking to my wise listener on things
my wife she
she looks like shes listening
shakes her head yes
i know i know she says
all while she is in the social media vortex

i said to her
as she was vortexing

you know
amazon should take over our healthcare system
yep
she shook her head yes
i know i know
as
she was looking at her lit up phone

then
today i read this article
on how amazon along with berkshire hathaway and jp morgan
warren buffett
are planning on
amazoning our healthcare system

i wonder if our condo is bugged or something
im putting duct tape over my laptops camera
right now

when they made this announcement
these stocks dropped
cvs
anthem
united

warren buffett said the healthcare costs are a hungry tapeworm on our
economy

we all know what amazon has done to the retail business
its disrupted it big time
it has created a new way to doing business

just this weekend on saturday evening
i had been looking for a particular organic product ive used
for years in texas
it was not available in this area
i tried to order it from the company
it was going to be hard to do plus expensive
so i thought
ill amazon it
click click and it was sitting on my porch monday morning
all the way from texas

can you imagine what will happen if these companies and their
brainy leaders who think out of the box
could do for our healthcare system
without all the politics thats involved in making a change
one that most agree needs done

i bet warren could get rid of that tapeworm real quick

you know washingtons not going to fix things anytime soon
but
i bet amazon and warren and the money guys will

i say
go far it amazon
you go warren

we need a change
i vote you guys do it
