airplane

A device that is heavier than air, with wings that are fixed in place, and can fly. Usually accompanied by at least one pilot.

Airplanes are great fun to fly, and like any tool can be used for good or evil.

"Look at that airplane flying up there!"

fallacy

An untruth. An untrue statement. A wrong idea.

The idea that the word "fallacy" has anything to do with sex is itself a fallacy.

mayday

Some people may be wondering why anybody would yell "May Day" when they are in trouble. Here is why:

It derives from the French "m'aidez", pronounced "mayDAY," and means literally "help me."

If you are in distress while flying an airplane, calling "Mayday mayday mayday" over the radio will give you top priority and any help people on the ground or in the air can offer.

test tube baby

A test tube baby was conceived by artificial means, by introducing the sperm and egg to each other outside the body. The zygote is then implanted into the future mother's womb.

Test tube babies are NOT born in test tubes. Not yet, anyway.

Jill had a very hard time getting pregnant, so she decided to try having a test tube baby.

Corolla

An affordable, low maintainance sedan built by Toyota. A popular first car. They will run forever. Also available in hatch back or sport coupe.

My personal favorite is the vintage 1979 2 door sedan. Rear wheel drive, 1.6 liter engine, bought it for $400 and it's still running strong.

Corollas rule!

I am glad I bought my Corolla, but I wish parts were easier to find for it.
