Doironscog?> What was I thinking? How sad is it that I wanted a rhyme word for blog? Pretty sad, yes, but not as sad as the way the username looks on the screen, like “Doiron scog,” which sounds like a fungal infection from the dark ages and found in places not politely reachable in public. In reality it’s meant to be Doiron’s cog. I liked the definitions of “cog” at dictionary.com, especially number 3. “a person who plays a minor part in a large organization, activity, etc.: He’s just a small cog in the financial department.” Translation, for the purposes of this blog, She’s just a small cog in wordsmithing department.” And also the verb definition, number 5: “to roll or hammer (an ingot, but in my case, a phrase, a word) into a bloom or slab.” What’s not to like, right?

LOL I read it as cog the first time round! But Lord how I laugh at the thought of some disease called Doiron Scog.
Let’s think of it as a place name. A scog, sort of like a crag but of the internet kind. A hidey hole wherein the treasure lies.
