Barbara Leedom: Olympic Musings
Barbara Leedom
Some people get adrenalin rushes, that whee feeling in chests, when on a Ferris wheel or when they made a birdie for the first time or when they solved a page-long algebraic equation or finished a 5K or grew a plant from a little shoot. We word wonks get that feeling when we learn a new word. Whee!
The Olympics are here, and they have given wordies a new word. Thank you, Simone Biles, the gymnast who has outdone all other gymnasts ever. She is the greatest. The best. Like no other. At least yet. She is The Biles.
