Everybody post a word that you don't use very often that you feel deserves more attention.
Mine is: Endoplasmic Reticulum
I guess it's two words, but you get the idea. Hopefully.

RObyn. ! i bet you use that word all the time. in fact i've heard you say it lots. c'mon there must be so many words stashed away in peoples brains that they hardly ever use. like octopus. when was the last time you said octopus?
endoplasmic reticulum is like a network of stuff in cells.. which does stuff.. i think. it's quite an underrated word.

yeh, it isn't really doing that well...good concept tho...
it's pretty hard to think of words you don't use very often if u don't use them often...catch my drift?

"osmehting" Pia's started taking this post to new places. Now we can all make up words. And suddenly my mind is blank.
