Ginormous originated during World War II as a slang word among British soldiers. Its first official appearance in written form was in the 1948 A Dictionary of Forces' Slang, 1939-1945. Ginormous describes something that's really big.

Coyote Vs. Acme Movie! Shelved?!
I just found out today that they made a movie version of Ian Frazier’s classic 1990 New Yorker piece Coyote V. Acme, in which Wile E. Coyote files a product liability lawsuit against the Acme Company.
My excitement was tempered almost immediately by hearing that Warner Bros. has shelved the completed film (starring John Cena & Will Forte and produced by James Gunn) in order to take a $30 million tax write-off.
Another article about the ill-treated film by Rolling Stone.

Mary Anning was born in 1799 in Great Britain. Her family lived in poverty, selling fossils to make ends meet.
Scientists of Anning’s day could not believe that a poor young woman could posses her knowledge & talent. She has been described as 'the greatest fossilist the world ever knew' yet many people are still unaware of her incredible contributions.
The majority of Anning’s discoveries ended up in museums & collections without credit. ucmp.berkeley.edu/history/anni… #science #history

Ok first of all, today is my first day using this thing in earnest and it’s AWESOME. I’m such a big fan. And I’m giving the thumb shift keys a chance. The blank key is also a CAPS_WORD that capitalizes the next typed word that I’m excited about.
Second of all, this is the first time in a very very long time that I’ve actually SEEN a Dvorak layout on my keyboard. I’ve always either had the keys on QWERTY or just used blanks. How fun. At least this means others can minimally use it.
I wonder if I should actually go back to QWERTY keys and just have a QWERTY layer for lay folk.
