"Stay Classy" is Will Ferrell's catchphrase in ANCHORMAN. "Gonormous" was his 
catchword in ELF.
  
The HDAS does not have "ginormous," but Jonathon Green's CASSELL DICTIONARY 
OF SLANG cites it as RAF slang from the 1940s.

EATING YOUR WORDS
  
Amazon.com says that this OUP book is available from June 4, 2004. (OUP has 
it due August 6th.)  Amazon says: "Customers interested in this title may also 
be interested in: AEROBIC STRIPTEASE--The only official place to purchase 
Carmen Electra's workour DVD series."
  
See the NEW YORK POST Page Six fight between Mimi Sheraton and William 
Grimes. Mimi's newest is titled EATING MY WORDS.
  
It appears that William Grimes put his name on the book, but OED grunts did 
most of the work. I've suggested such a book for years. OUP never contacted me 
regarding this book. OUP can use any part of my work without compensation, and 
this book prevents me from selling a similar book.
  
For people wondering when my food dictionary is coming out, well, there ain't 
no food dictionary. Who's going to give me money for it? Who's going to 
publish it--Oxford? I'm going to publish a dictionary the size and scope of DARE 
all by myself in my spare time after a full day of parking tickets?

BARRYPOPIK.COM
  
The site was mentioned on GOTHAMIST (www.gothamist.com) on July 22nd, and it 
got well over a thousand hits yesterday.
  
On the Big Apple Whore Hoax front this week, a writer cited the hoax in a 
July 4th article (see Google News), and Jerry Cohen contacted her, and she 
contacted Peter Salwen, who admitted that it was a "spoof." Salwen "didn't realize" 
it was still on the web. It might, MIGHT, be removed. 
  
So everything is rounding into place for when the "big apple" sculptures hit 
New York City on August 15th for the Big Apple Fest (www.bigapplefest.org). My 
site might get some hits, although it's still way down on Google, even on a 
search for "Barry Popik."
  
But no matter what the site is or how many hits it gets, the fact is, I don't 
make anything, and I'll never make anything, and I work every day, and the 
city (who I work for) doesn't give me health care, and Oxford (who I work for) 
doesn't give me health care, and I can't even buy health care anywhere, and I 
did all this Big Apple stuff twelve years ago.
  
I wasn't in the mood for posting much this week and might not be in the 
fuiture. It's nice to see others take up the slack
