an island off the coast of Georgia (USA, not the former Soviet republic)
Simply put, it is the most beautiful place on earth.
And no, I don't live there (but wish I did). Only a few people live there, most of it is national seashore. The rest of the dry land is forest of huge old oaks with animals running around. And wild horses running wild on the beach.
Very few people live there. It's mostly federal land and they allow only 300 peeps in at a time.

Get the Cumberland Islandmug. a frog that has been run over by so many cars that it's flat. You can pick it up and throw it like a Frisbee and it will sail.

Get the sailfrogmug. something Ross on Friends says too much. Rachel said, let's take a break, so Ross boinked Chole, the punk girl from the copy center. He and Rachel immediately made-up, but when she found out about the boinking, she was pissed.
Ross spent the next four years or so saying, "WE WERE ON A BREAK!"

She wants me to take responsibility for everything that went wrong in our relationship. I mean she goes on for five pages about, about how I was unfaithful to her! "Well...WE WERE ON A BREAK!"

Get the WE WERE ON A BREAK!mug. confusion either induced by the media or from which the media suffers; when the media obfuscates rather than enlightens.
I hope and pray that the American people can cut through the endless media haze and partisan nonsense and finally pick some responsible and intelligent leaders.

2) a former bookworm who read books all the time, till he got the interweb, and now spends all of his time surfing.

Get the computer wormmug. A fake identity that the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador assumed in a congressional hearing in 1990, after the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait, before American intervention.
The powers that be first coached a 15-year-old Kuwaiti girl, identified only at the time as Naira, to testify before Congress that she had seen Iraqi soldiers remove Kuwaiti babies from hospital incubators. "Naira" claimed to be a refugee who had been working as a volunteer in a Kuwaiti hospital throughout the first few weeks of the Iraqi occupation. She said that she had seen them take babies out of the incubators, take the incubators, and leave the babies "on the cold floor to die."
Naira's emotional testimony riveted human rights organizations, the news media, and the nation. That incident was cited by six Members of the U.S. Senate as reasons to go to war with Iraq.
The propaganda effort worked but later the entire episode was exposed as an outright lie and the girl turned out to be the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador to the US. No matter that it was all just a staged stunt to sway people's opinions, it helped to pave the way for all the misery and death to follow. They gave those emotional chains a big, hard yank.
I can't prove it, but I always thought that this is what inspired the movie "Wag the Dog."

Boo hoo hoo, I can't stand the thought of those babies dying on the cold floor, like that nurse Naira told us. Those Iraqis sure are meanies. We Americans just have to do something...
