Addendum
Oh My God
First off, I just have to say that Dark Eyes was (is?) vodka, not gin, but gin is where it’s at. I just looked in the dictionary to make sure I spelled “addendum” correctly, and just OPENED the book to the page at the top of which was listed “Drag Queen.” Well I’ve certainly known some drag queens over the years and didn’t need the dictionary to supply definition, but I allowed myself to be curious. The Websters New World Dictionary defines a drag queen as “a male homosexual who dresses in women’s clothing.”
Well that’s not entirely wrong but it’s like defining a car as “a thing with a motor in it.”
This post isn’t about drag queens it is, in fact, an addendum to my previous post. But if my beloved dictionary can get one thing so wrong wrong wrong, how else might it misguide me?
