WORD PLAY ~ 'CREVICE'

**Thanks for allowing me to make yesterday's post. So here is Wednesday WORD PLAY a day late. It will post in its normal slot next week, 7/19/06.**

CREVICE
Pronunciation: 'kre-v&s
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Anglo-French crevace, from crever to break, from Latin crepare to crack
: a narrow opening resulting from a split or crack (as in a cliff): rift: cranny, breach, or gap : FISSURE

Welcome to the official kick-off of Wednesday WORD PLAY, one day late of course. It's short, sweet, and to the point as I mentioned in my preview post of it this past Saturday's post. Today's kickoff word is CREVICE.

Usage: Mom used to tell me, "Be sure you clean behind all the nooks, crannies, and crevices to be sure everything is clean." Perhaps not the true usage of the word but it works for what I wanted it to work for. ;-) [Ok, I am wondering where your minds have gone with that one. Shame on you, if they did go there!]

So again, here is the "play" portion...any comment you leave must use the word crevice in it. Your response can be about anything ~ the post, me (watch it!), something about you, something happening in your life. Knock yourself out thinking of something serious, humorous, or off-beat to comment about.
