Word Verification Fun 002

Word Verification Fun 002
countiat 312

As my semi-regular one or two readers might have noticed I am trying to make this a semi-regular feature. It is, however, dependent on me finding and stumbling onto letter combinations that make an interesting word to me.

The word this time is "Countiat" which immediately made me think of Count Von Count the Muppet from Sesame Street who is overly obsessed with counting everything he encounters "ah ah ah"; AND the AT-ATs from the Star Wars films (first appearance in Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back), those camel/elephant looking machines that couldn't be destroyed by regular laser blaster fire but could be tripped up by tow cables.


OR

It is a new car by Lamborghini the new 2014 Conuntiat 312. Two models are available the wheeled ATV edition at geekologie.com and the walker edition below (show with custom ordered extension legs, standard walker edition is 1/2 as tall) :


Note: Sesame Street is a trademark of the Sesame Workshop (Formerly known as Children's Television Workshop). The Muppets are part of The Muppets Studio, LLC a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company. Star Wars and AT-AT walkers are copyrights of Lucas Arts which is now part of The Walt Disney Company.

A quick humorous thought - Flumo Wrestling.

I think it was on this past Saturday, while 'net surfin' I made a comment on a blog I was reading. The Google verification service that you have to log-into to post a comment usually gives some random letters that don't make up any real word. This time was not really different but what it did give was at least to me pretty funny.

It gave me: "Flumo" my first thought was what what a cool new Sport Flumo Wrestling. What exactly that is I don't know. The second meaning could simply be when the Muppet Elmo gets the flu. I hope it isn't anything nasty that would offend anybody in a different language, if so then my deepest sincerest apologies.

Finally while trying to find an appropriate picture of Elmo, I couldn't find what I was looking for but saw this:

AH That might be it.
