Is felching not a witty thing to talk about? It rhymes with belching, so I wondered if it was something people with 6 packs and pick up trucks participate in at auto races. Perhaps in the parking lot.

Of course I made up my own definition for it since Ylang Ylang told me not to look for the real one.

Have you ever made up words and then made up definitions? My kids are learning about rimes and onsets (and yes, in this context rimes is spelled "rimes"). Part of what we do is take a rime- like the "all" part of ball ("b" is the onset and "all" is the rime) and we make all the words we can think of with that rime. We can even make nonsense words but it we do than we have to make up a definition. It's a fun way to learn. At least my kids seem to think it's fun. They make up the weirdest words. 'Zall"- everything a Zebra owns. Isn't that cute? Kids are so creative.
