Uhm I couldn't find Gastroturgy anywhere. What is that?
The rest i can figure out since my character has recently become a research librarian of sorts. Most of these words will work I think... just trying to figure out in what context.

 ???

Murphy's Stunt Double:

--- Quote from: meg_evonne on October 29, 2009, 09:36:42 PM ---wait.... you're going to honor MSD's Barry Manilow???  Egads, I guess I would cheat and make a humorous dedication to Barry.  I mean that might be enough to cause the Nano crowd to ditch the whole activity.   

I know, my anti Barry is showing.  LOL

Let's see...  I write the words, Barry writes the songs.
I can laugh, I can cry, and I can write a novel, but I can't smile without you, Barry!
Looks like We Made It, but I couldn't have without you Barry!

Okay, I'm barfing now...  seriously!

Oh, pah-leeeeeze....
Even Nicholas Sparks described a traffic back-up full of old people as looking like the exit line from a Barry Manilow concert. Nobosy said it had to be complimentary!

Ah, but what is life without the revolution!

Kali:
Can we get "gastroturgy" declared a "not a real word" since it doesn't occur in any dictionary I've consulted?  If we don't know what it means, we can't work it into a story, at least not in any clever way.  I mean, I could always have someone doing a crossword and asking if "gastroturgy" is a real word, but that's no fun. :D
