So, I've got a blog . . . Now what?

Everyone seems to be jumping on the blog bandwagon so I thought I'd give it a go as well. Haven't really got a clue what I'm going to talk about, but that's never really stopped me from saying something, so . . .

Brobdingnagian

Brobdingnagian \brob-ding-NAG-ee-uhn\, adjective:
Of extraordinary size; gigantic; enormous.

Brobdingnagian is from Brobdingnag, a country of giants in Swift's Gulliver's Travels.


I can honestly say I've never heard anyone use this word in the course of normal conversation. I am also almost willing to bet I've never read the word in any of the types of books I'm prone to reading. And, no, I've never read Gulliver's Travels. It just never appealed to me much. I can't tell you why. It's just a reaction I have to some books or some authors.
