Bathroom Literature??

Many homes keep Reader's Digest in the bathrooms. This is a shame! This magazine is such a sophisticated compilation of current events, brain-teasers, and inspiring stories; the bathroom seems like such an insulting location! Anyway, one of my fav's in RD is "Word Power." Leaders have power, so do words, so leader-power & word-power go hand-in-hand. This month, RD pulled 14 (of the 100) new words officially added to the Webster dictionary.
Tell me how you scored and I'll tell ya how I scored! Good luck!
