Re: PESO: New Hampshire lake

2006-08-29 Thread Rick Womer
Marnie,

Courtesy of the online American Heritage Dictionary:

SYLLABICATION:  brick·bat
PRONUNCIATION:brkbt
NOUN:   1. A piece, especially of brick, used as a
weapon or missile. 2. An unfavorable remark; a
criticism.
ETYMOLOGY:  brick + bat1, piece of brick.
WORD HISTORY:The earliest sense of brickbat, first
recorded in 1563, was “a piece of brick.” Such pieces
of brick have not infrequently been thrown at others
in the hope of injuring them; hence, the figurative
brickbats (first recorded in 1929) that critics hurl
at performances they dislike. The appearance of bat as
the second part of this compound is explained by the
fact that the word bat, “war club, cudgel,” developed
in Middle English the sense “chunk, clod, wad,” and in
the 16th century came to be used specifically for a
piece of brick that was unbroken on one end.

Strange, when did Wenonah gain all this brand recognition? Back in the 
days when I was seriously into canoeing they were considered a decent 
mid-line boat, but reletively unknown. Recently I have heard them

I was never a very serious cano-er, but I was always led to believe they 
were one of the better canoe makers. This goes back many years.

Nice shot BTW. I like the clouds in the background.
You don't see many fisheye landscapes like that. I've
