LEXICON DIAMONDS

Skillz's year-end (w)rap-up is better than the last one, whenever that was. Skillz on the Madonna/Britney kizz: "It didn't shock me. It would have shocked me if she'd kissed Missy."

Is the new Raekwon actually kinda OK? "Missing Watch" is more than OK--narrative bobsled alert, but I'm feeling five or six other tracks. That's a shock.

On NPR this morning, callers were asked to suggest words to be eliminated from the dictionary. A woman caller said "gymnasium" makes anyone who says it sound congested and "horny" reminds her of bedpans. She suggested both words be replaced with "clock."
