Never A Dull Day!,

This review is from: Jeffrey Kacirk's Forgotten English: A 365-Day Calendar of Vanishing Vocabulary and Folklore (Calendar)
I have been sending this calendar as a Christmas gift to my mother for years. She even sends me her favorite word of the week. It's not only educational,(history and trivia buffs will love it), but also entertaining. One word happened to be my employer's last name and the archaic definition was "assassin". Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates words and a good sense of humor, which my boss does not.

I was given the 2004 Forgotten English calendar by Jeff Kacirk for Christmas. I thought it was a standard boring gift from an office friend. Boy was I wrong. Reading the words which used to inhabit our English language and the customs of days long past was fascinating and very entertaining. The 2004 calendar opened up a whole new world of great words and history to me, and I have started reading Kacirk's many other great works. Based in the 2004 calendar I would recommend any Kacirk calendar to anyone interested in history or language.
