Logos

1. From Greek, literally "the word". (See God's Word.)

Not to be confused with, or pronounced as, the plural form of logo.

duh-weeb

Dweeb spelled phonetically so dweebs can find it.

Genesis

1. From Latin; literally, beginning.

2. The first book of the Bible, supplying the earliest history of creation available to man.

3. Scientific term for the origin of a subject.

4. A progressive rock band starring first Peter Gabriel, and later, Phil Collins.

5. In Star Trek III:

a. An experimental device that became the bone of contention between William Shatner and Christopher Lloyd.

b. A short-lived planet named after the Genesis device.

6. A game console from Sega.
1. I started at the beginning, with the Genesis of the word Genesis.

2. You can tell that Moses compiled Genesis from a number of sources because he repeatedly started from the beginning, and retold the first 7 days in the next telling as taking place in one day, because the word day is a metaphor.

3. In reality, the Genesis of a planet requires billions of years rather than a week of literal days, as in myth, or protomatter, as in Star Trek III.

4. Whether Genesis was better with Peter or with Phil is still hotly debated. (I prefer Phil, but that's just my personal taste.)

5. a. "Give me Genesis!"

5. b. "Genesis?!? Genesis planet is forbidden!"

6. Sega Genesis.

Graffiti City

Nickname for Modesto, California, so named because George Lucas based the script for American Graffiti upon events that occurred there during his senior year at Downey High. He just changed everyone's and everything's names enough so they couldn't sue him for defamation of character.

Modesto also used to host the biggest Graffiti Night rallies for a few years after the movie came out.

throw yourself at the ground and miss

To fly, you'll need to throw yourself at the ground and miss. Difficulty arises because if one is truly trying properly to throw themselves at the ground and fails to miss, chances are that one will fail to miss the ground quite hard.
