I think I want to start using the term gunnysack a little bit more. You know, work it into my daily vocabulary. Gunnysack. Its such a fun word. I'd like to think I know what it means. I think I've only heard David Letterman use it. Then again do I really want to use it, I mean, its probably an old person word. But, let's just break the word down. The first word, gunny, just sounds fun. Its like its a fun and sensitive word for gun. Then the word sack. And only good things come from the word sack. I mean, first and foremost there is a guy's sack. Who doesn't love a guy's sack? Even straight guys love a man's sack, especially their own. I mean, the sack produces the love juice. And how about a sack as in a bag. People only keep fun things in a sack, like their secret stash. Or maybe a sack full of candy. Or Santa's sack full of toys. In football if the quarterback is tackled before the line of scrimmage that is known as a sack, and everybody loves a sack............well, provided said sack doesn't happen to your team. Really there is nothing bad about gunny or sack. So that's it, I'm going to start using the term gunnysack.
Or not.
