what's in a name

* * *

sigh.....juNxtaposition....hmmm

 - - -
funny  name....

what does it mean ???

how do you pronounce it ???

hmmm

 - - -

well............

_ _ _ 

the origin - by definition :

jux·ta·po·si·tion 

[juhk-stuh-puh-zish-uhn] 

noun
1.an act or instance of placing close together or side by side,  
especially for comparison or contrast.
(it's actually a decorating term)
- - - 

[juhnk-stuh-puh-zish-uhn]

noun
1. an act or instance of placing close together or side by side the old and new, 
especially for comparison or contrast.

such as...
OLD typewriter keys, NEW settings 
ROUGH skeleton keys, SMOOTH pearls
VINTAGE silverware, NEW STYLE stamping
OLD dictionaries & hymnals,, NEW bubbles & matboards 
on and on and on and on ...

we are only limited by our imagination !!



 so
_ _ _

my definition:
the juxtaposition of junk 

_ _ _

so...it's a strange name....i am aware....

i didnt follow any of the 'business' rules for choosing a name...

_ _ _

(and the fact that it's lower case...always puts me at the end of the list...sigh...)

 _ _ _

but i can live with it all...

because mostly i'm just called...

"the typewriter key lady with the funny name ... you know ... starts with a J....."

but that's ok...they know who i am...

_ _ _

so i suppose my point, 
in this internet world,

you only have to know how to spell it once..

then 'bookmark' the pages you are interested in...

  5. My website is KIRB Appeal--and they always are asking me if I mean "curb" or "kerb" (the British spelling). Nope. Kirb. Which is probably why so many Russians end up at my place. It's probably some funky Russian word.
