Words you can keep
the beginning of a day when the light from the sun starts to become visible due to the rotation of the earth and the position of the earth. it is a result of the emission of light from the sun and the position of a human, where the light pierces the conjunctivae and enters the pupils to stimulate his or her retinas and triggers neuronal inputs that course through my optic nerves, cross at the optic chiasm and then radiate into different lobes of his or her cortex of his or her brain.

it was created to replace the word sunrise, which is misleading and wrong.
1. It is another early morning, and I can see the captiva. 2. The captiva is occuring now. 3. the captiva is captivating.

Legend of Captiva 

Long long ago on mount olympis Captiva was forged by Zeus him self, who gave it to Moses on a stone tablet, who threw it at napoleon, who lost it in a game of cards to Michael Phelps, who used it to swim across the Atlantic and the then sold it to Amelia Earhart for a subway contract, where it was lost at sea along with Amelia, when years later Lara Croft found it in a tomb along side a pile of left socks and my academy award for best speech, then Lara took the Captiva and placed it under Dr. Nagata's pillow where he descovered it the next morning.

Word of the Day on August 25, 2026
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
