So I searched "synonym for thesaurus" and the result was "thesaurus".

My computer then went into an endless loop and the hard drive caught on fire.

but they were all out! So I settled for a Brontosaurus. Now, that son of a gun proved to be really difficult to squeeze into my car to take home.

I actually chose to ride it home and then took a cab back and picked up my car.

If anyone has any spare vegetation to donate, I'll gladly take it. That Brontosaurus sure consumes a lot!

In fact, this was my favorite song when I was a kid. This was the first 45 that I bought when I was 9 or 10 years old. The lyrics have not aged well, and they sound predatory and cringe inducing in this day and age.

I still remember going to the record store to buy this 45. The next week, I bought my first thesaurus!

I hope you are having a nice day, Niagara.

That's a fairly tame song with lyrics considering what I listen to.

I think my first 45 was Don Johnson's Heartbeat.

I hope that you're having a nice day as well, Lucky.
