Virginia comes to my desk daily to check out the word of the day. Mostly we know the words, they aren’t always that spectacular. Yesterday’s word was caucus.

“Caucus? I know that one,” Virginia said.
“Yeah, it’s a word of unknown origin. It seems John Adams was the first to use it. It might be an old Indian word for a gathering of elders,” I Cliff Clavened.
“Why don’t you use your powers for good,” Ella asked.

If only I could harness all the brain power wasted on useless trivia, I could take over the world.
