New vocabulary word

I'd say the health care debate has given us a new word for our daily vocabulary--"stupack."  It may be used in contexts such as
"I got stupacked--I was expecting scallops in white wine, but they served fish sticks."

"The crowd was angry with the show's producer who promised The Rolling Stones, but could only deliver the Herman's Hermits tribute band.  Accusations of stupacking abounded."

"My bout with intestinal flu threatened to stupack our planned cruise; fortunately, I recovered in time."
A blend of dashed expectations and unanticipated venality....if that makes sense.

Snow discord

There were news reports last week about snow in all 50 states and in 49 states. Did anyone ever clarify? I think it far more likely to have been 49, given Hawaii's location in the mid-Pacific. But, someone could look this up--just sayin'.

I think I get it...

Saw this handmade sign pointing down a side street on the way home today:

"GOSPLE REBIBLE".
