Word of the Day
pelf n. Riches or wealth, esp. when fraudulently obtained.
Come on, world! Why aren't we using this word more often?! It's fantastic! "The ways he's living, he must have a lot of pelf in the bank."
Better yet, it should also be modified into an adjective. Pelfy. Meaning rich or wealthy, but through fraudulently obtained. "Curse those pelfy robber-barons!"
Someone's got to get on this...

You'll have to come see why.
