December 2003
AL-erism: "Kidling"
It's a little more serious than kidding
someone; it's when you're needling
them as well as kidding them.

November 2003
AL-erism: " Sidewards"
When you're repairing something, it's
the way you try to fit in the last piece,
when it just won't fit anyway but
sideways in backwards.

October 2003
AL-erism:  "Almazing"
It's bigger than just amazing - in golf
terms, it's when you hit two birdies in
a row.

September 2003
AL-erism: "Confracted"
It's what happens when you're helping
your kid with math homework and you're
confused about solving problems with
fractions, or any math problem for that
matter.

August 2003
AL-erism: "Themize"
It's what you do when you're choosing
what information to include in a report
or newsletter so that everything fits
together.

July 2003
AL-erism: " Practibility"
It's putting into practice the ability to be
practical when making decisions, like
when a new ump has to call a play in a
girls softball game and he first calls time
to ask the coaches the exact rule behind
sliding.

June 2003
AL-erism:  "Nactual"
It's when something really, actually
happens that seems perfectly natural,
like when you're feeling at the top of
your game in golf or softball and the
score actually reflects it.

May 2003
AL-erism: "Confliction"
When you're constantly in a state of
conflict or afflicted with conflict, like
when you and your spouse can't agree
on something.

April 2003
AL-erism: "Reinfresh"
It's a combination of reinventing or
refreshing something. When you take
another look at an old idea, you
reinfresh it.

March 2003
AL-erism: "Snoogly"
From Zoe in the Baby Blues comic strip,
it's a response to a "How was your day?"
question: "When somebody bugs you all
day, the teacher (boss) asks you hard
questions and nothing goes right - that's
snoogly."

February 2003
AL-erism: "Comforture"
It's when the temperature is just right
Finding Comforture in the middle of winter
in Minnesota is pretty much impossible.

January 2003
AL-erism: "Vicious Triangle"
It's when you do the math and it still
doesn't spell anything.
