a digression, for any Latin-enabled Wordcrafters:

IRASCIBLE, meaning irritable or easily provoked, comes from Latin ira, as in Dies irae, "Day of Anger." How did the "-sc-" come into the picture? Second conjugation twice removed, or something like that?

I think I've mentioned it before. (Maybe not, I couldn't find a thread.) There's a verbal suffix, -sc-, for creating inchoative verbs in Latin. Rubesco 'to redden', irasco(r) 'to be angry, be in a rage'.

I keep trying to make it into something out of "chaos," but no go, that's just dyslexia setting in !

A NICE COUSIN My cousin Vinnie?

Vinnie certainly portrayed an air of insouciance as he walked into the courtroom.

Where is Vinnie's DIE CUTTER?
