the Herman Dictionary

There are many words in the English language, and when you add them up with all the other words in all the other languages, you will not even begin to be able to keep track.

But....Herman has a language all of his own.  And if you have ever received a text or BBM from him, you know or are learning to decipher his very creative spelling techniques.

Spelling isn't everything...that's why we have spell-check!  But Herman is also really good at making up his own vocabulary - and no one knows how to spell those words except for him!

The first word in the Herman Dictionary is :

Woolly-Wootz

Not quite sure what it is, but the word is used to describe someone who has done something odd or wrong.  Example:  "not like that woolly-wootz"

What other words would you like to add to the Herman Dictionary?

The Red Rocket

This is the Red Rocket

The Red Rocket was a Corsica that Herman bought for a really good deal - low kilometers and good price!  And he drove it forever...almost into the ground actually.  The Corsica travelled from Saskatchewan to Ontario (back and forth on the 401 a million times) then on to Halifax and back to Saskatchewan again.

But the real story is how the Red Rocket is loaded...with nothing!!  No air conditioning, no FM radio and if you are fortunate enough to drive in the August heat with Herman on the 401 (or anywhere really) you must do so with the vents blowing and the windows closed because he doesn't like the noise.

PS - no that is not Herman's house in the background!
