Herb: ‘I Love Adjectives’

Herb Huseland: I love adjectives. I use words that many don’t anymore, but then I’m older than dirt. Maybe we should have a story on fun words, descriptive words that drip with realism. Stuff like that. I’ll give this some thought, then perhaps submit this mirror image of profundity. Some of my favorite expressions are: “We’ve seen everything this week except famine and pestilence.” Some of the words that reach out and grab me are: “Maimed.” No need to define that one. “Crotchety.” I am whut I am. Ther’s a bunch of really good words that haven’t been used up yet and don’t need to be replaced with new ones. How about depraved? Deprived. If you are deprived and depraved, you are most likely depressed. (Enough already)

Question: Do you have a favorite adjective or two?
