    I can love my fellow man, but I'm damned if I'll love yours.
    Just because I don't care, doesn't mean I don't understand.

    When I was much younger, I would go into paroxysms of laughter over the word 'elephant,' as it looked such a stupid word.

    It still looks stupid, but I've learned to control the laughing.

    That 'syzygy' looks like half a word from here. Didn't you forget the 'ium'?

    Syzygy is a real word, unlike philangee, which I can't find anywhere. Szyygy is an astronomy term having to do with conjunctions of celestial bodies, either opposed or in a straight line, and is especially favored for use when three celestial bodies form a line.
    Philangee appears to be jabberwocky. Can someone favor us with a definition?
