There's a word for your blog--humbug!" snapped Susan in an email a couple months ago.
And what a great word! It means trickery, deceit, nonsense played on the unsuspecting. Mostly a noun, it call also be a verb.
And what a great mystery, too. No one knows where it came from--though it's alleged to be student slang, British origin.... A bit of buggery, perhaps?
