A Little Laughter For The Soul And The Word “Expert”
Categories: Church of Christ Bulletin Articles
Someone has said that “Laughter is good for the soul” (some other laughter quotes), and that proverbial saying still holds true today (see article). A few days ago, while looking for a good definition for the word “expert” (there are about as many definitions as there are people), I came across the following humorous definition:
The word “expert” is formed from the conjunction of two roots which phonetically can be represented as “x” and “spurt.” Everyone knows that “X” is an unknown quantity. A “spurt” is what one gets from squeezing a drop of water. Therefore, an expert is an unknown drip under pressure (see source).
After laughing for a few moments, I thought this definition was about as good as I’d ever seen. So, the next time we hear from the news media about a so-called “expert,” we’ll know exactly what kind of knowledgeable guy he really is!
Have a great day and may God bless each and every one as we prepare for the Lord‘s Day tomorrow.
