PLEASE NOTE
UPDATE: January 11, 2022
Happy New Year!
I'm still working on the new site. It's getting there!
I've been asked why it's taking so long. It's the same question I've asked myself! :)
Seriously though, it is a lot of work.
It took quite some time to learn the new platform and since I decided to give the whole site a new look, it took even more time to decide how to set it up.
There was lots of deleting and redoing. And cussing!
Once I got that sorted, it was time to start bringing the data from here to there.
Unfortunately, when I paste the copied text on to the new site, I lose the formatting. So I have to redo all that, (as well as make changes) which is very time-consuming. And very boring! So I take a wee break from it every so often, and add new words. That part I like!
Oh, and I mustn't forget that what I do in the editing page is not exactly the same as what is published! So I need to check every page. I estimate there will be something like 1800 pages by the time I'm done.
So there's a few things going on, and some take more time than I would like.
While I am not done yet, and won't be for a while, I will post the link to the new, unfinished site once I get a couple of things sorted. All going well, that should be soon.
On top of all that, my little corner of the world is in an area that does not have a reliable Internet connection. Prior to writing this, I was without a connection for 4 days. This time!
The above is probably more info than anybody wanted or needed to know, but hopefully it gives an idea of what is involved with moving my site.
In the meantime, WAPFTP will be here for quite some time.
Back to it goes I!
Cheers!

Words and Phrases from the Past
Words and Phrases from the Past
Words and Phrases from the Past is an ongoing project.
Words and phrases are constantly being added, as well as being edited (extra definitions, date changes, etc., including [...muttered in a very quiet voice...], the correcting of errors!).
So if a word isn't currently here, it could quite possibly get added this very day, or tomorrow, or sometime soon! Keep checking back!
Looking for a word?
Try the alphabetical DICTIONARY tab on the left, or the search box below.
The Reverse Dictionary (Thesaurus with definitions!) is a great way to find words by their definition.
Complete definitions are given so you can find the right word you're looking for.
E.G. Looking for a word for a clumsy person?
Under Reverse Dictionary, click on "Reverse C". From the pop-up click on the word grouping where you would find 'clumsy'.
There you will find not only words for a clumsy person, but also any adjectives, nouns, or phrases that pertain to clumsiness. Instead of calling somebody a clumsy klutz, try 'bumbersome bumblebug' for a change! :)
Enjoy!!
