A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

I've told this story before, but maybe 10 years ago I attended a "surrealist parlor game night" at the Somerville Arts Center hosted by Roger Miller. I assumed he was just like the local celebrity host they roped in, but apparently this was a passion project of his; he mostly just went from table to table seeing how everyone was enjoying the games. It was one of my favorite Boston cultural moments.

I really enjoy Latin/Greek word roots.

Interesting. "Furcifer" = "furca" + "ifer". "Furca" is cognate with "fork" and "ifer" means "bearing" (like Lucifer, light-bearer). Literally "furcifer" is "yoke-bearer" or "slave" - from there metaphorically to "scoundrel". (No I did not know all that, I looked it up).

"Every single American has an accent. For those who have lived in one part of the country and then moved somewhere else only to be told they have an accent, this is great news.

For a while, people described the accent from Northeastern Ohio as "standard American," and the Midwestern accent was ascribed the title "General American." But at some point, maybe during the immigration patterns of the 1950s, people shifted, and the Midwest accent changed." - www.travelandleisure.com...
