Greetings from my brief lunch hour in my ridiculous life. I'm on PopeWatch here today.

SALAD DRESSING-ED--I see on CNN that Pat Buchanan got hit with salad dressing. Not egg, or he'd be egged. Not pie. Salad Dressing. Caesar? Ranch? Well, accompanying the CNN story are ads for salad dressings! Check that out! How sick is that? Anyway, is the verb salad dressinged?

DAVE WILTON'S DICTIONARY--
http://www.biztechdictionary.com/dict.html
In 1998, when all the internet business buzzwords were flying, I was going to write a business dictionary myself. But let's face it, I even write a book on the "hot dog" and it's even mentioned in a New York Times obituary, and they still don't listen to you. I'm supposedly going to do a food dictionary, but it's all kind of hard in your spare time after ten hours of nonsense.
Anyway, this is sorely needed, and it's a good start. I wish I were doing it.
