Sentence: 'I don't think I like wearing these orange robes,' Donald reflected, as he chanted "Hare Krishna" along with his two new friends at the airport, 'and baldness doesn't really suit me either.' But as a passerby dropped a coin into his bowl, his friends both gave him encouraging smiles, and in his fauxnaticism, all his doubts were quickly forgotten.

Hey Verbotomists! Verbotomy is launching in "b", Baltimore's free daily newspaper. They are publishing the winning Verbotomy word of the day in the paper.

To coordinate our site with the paper, we are adding an extra day of voting, just to make sure the best word wins.

So we are now playing on a 3-day cycle: First day for word creation; second day for voting; and on the third we publish the winner on the site and in the paper.

Check out our Verbotomy Video here: http://www.verbotomy.com/verbotomize.php

Be creative! ~ James
