Note: Saturday’s word search puzzle will be delayed while I figure out a glitch that keeps some people from being able to run the puzzles. Meanwhile, please check out the archives by clicking on the “Complete Archives” link to the right.
It’s all about the slang
American slang goes way, way back.
For example, the term ‘handcuff’ meaning ‘engagement ring’ goes back to the 1920’s. A ‘deadbeat’ started to forget to pay all the way back in the 1860’s.
So, how many of the slang words in today’s word search puzzle do you know?
Better still, how many have you used?
