New Word of the Day
 

I suppose I should say I�m glad my definition was chosen but the term �choose� implies a number of options and this is not the case.  As mine was the only definition, there was no competition but, for the sake of keeping it going, here�s a new word:

TUMBARUMBA.

Remember: no real definitions allowed.

When people celebrate the death of a person (BTW: quite common in certain cultures), they dance rumba around the tomb.

Dancing Rumba can make you feel so tired , leaving you exhausted after a long try so the only thing you will long for is "tumbar " , that is, in Spanish, to rest for a while, lie on a bed, sofa.. That�s tumbarumba !!!

Tumbarumba is the latest offering from the iRobot Corporation. Their automated vacuum cleaner, the Roomba, has been popular for years. The newer Tumbarumba (from tumble Roomba) will actually vacuum from both the top and the bottom and will clean walls, ceilings, and furniture in addition to floors. If the starting price weren �t $2499.99 for the base model, I would consider getting one for my house. It certainly needs a thorough cleaning top to bottom!
