Written for February - SHORT MONTH, SHORT BLOGS: Prompt - Question from you bloggers: What is meant by short? Word Count, 158 What is meant by short? It's a short word, only five letters, yet it can have numerous applications. It seems short can measure in any direction, it applies to time, and even to tempers. It also applies to clothing and electrical problems. Best slogan for an electricians vehicle: "Let us remove your shorts!" Here is another question; If you have pants with short legs, they are called shorts. Why is it plural? Even more disturbing, it's not only plural, it's plural-plural, as in two plurals! That's right, a pair of shorts; pair-two, shorts-more than one short. If I wear a pair of shorts, do I put two on? If I only wear one, am I wearing short, or a short? If I invent electrically heated shorts and they short out, do I have a short in my shorts? If there is more than one short, would it be shorts in my shorts? I'm getting a headache!
