This 'N That

Lizzie was quizing me last evening and asked if I knew the definition for 'decimate'. I'd never considered it. Normally, and I think a lot of people use it in the context of completely destroying someone or something. Then my wise spouse said, "isn't 'deci' one tenth of something"? It's not that big a deal but it gave me pause. Just thought you'd want to know. It's amazing the conversations husbands and wives come up with when only one TV channel is available.
I've decided I will never visit North Minneapolis. We watch, out of boredom, WCCO TV from The Twin Cities. They have to lead the world in murders for kids under 16.
